Ram Air Hood
I was thinking about a dual Ram Air hood for a Fiero, It would look real nice. does anybody know of a website for a Fiero Ram Air hood, or a hood that fit, or maybe a kit that is just the scoops that you bolt on to the exsisting hood. all info is welcome and greatly appreciated.

Re: Ram Air Hood
Obviously you couldn't put a working ram air hood on a Fiero since there's no simple way of getting the air from the spare tire compartment up front to the engine compartment in back. If you're looking for a real cold air system they do make roof induction kits(don't know where though). If you want the ram air scoops for pure looks only, J C Whitney has a nice selection, you can see it at http://www.jcwhitney.com/webapp/wcs/...10222&ss=10101

Re: Ram Air Hood
Having a ram air effect on the front of the hood would work in helping to keep the radiator cool if done correctly. I have seen quite a few designs that do a great job in doing this. As for the engine in back, many have added rear deck scoops, over the roof scoops, deck vent scoops, etc.

ummmm my bad
I'm not really looking for a functional ram hood. I'm just looking for the look of a ram air hood. Maybe just some mounted pieces that I could mount on. I think that they have the best style and look for what im going at.

They show these on a truck but obviously being generic scoops will go on anything: http://www.ultimateautoaccessories.c...ood_Scoops.htm

Re: Ram Air Hood
would a hood scoop on the rear deck help keep the engine cool? Is there enough low pressure (vacuum) for the rear deck scoop to help any?

Re: Ram Air Hood
I doubt decklid scoops would pick up enough air to do much good - at least on the notchbacks, with a fastback you might have better luck. I was daydreaming at work the other day (ok, so I do it everyday) and thought of mounting high powered 12 volt fans under the vent louvers - blowing outward - to pull out hot air from the engine compartment and in the process pick up cooler air from underneath the car. Crazy, but worth a shot...

Re: Ram Air Hood
I will give it a try because it is only a rear decklid the will be destroyed if it doesn't work.
