scoop1 second looks to big for the car,
plus the first one looks more retro for the car shape.

I voted scoop 1. Scoop 2 does nothing for the lines of the car and looks well out of place in my opinion :)

Thanks guys.
Number one is the one thats allready on the car : Holley's Megascoop.
Its a nice retro looking scoop and something differend like the more common Hilborn style scoop.

Option two I borrowd from my friend's Indy 500 powered ProMod 41'Willys to see how it looks on our Capri. I allways liked the look of a Shotgun Scoop.

This morning we trial fitted it and were not shure about the looks. The scoop is awsome but probably not on our small blower single carb V8 powered Capri.
We probably need 1) a bigger engine, 2) a bigger blower trough the bonnet, 3) dual carb setup to get this scoop looking right on our car and that means 4) a bigger wallet and outch ( my girlfriend just hit me) is not going to happen.

Number one stays on, number two is on his way back to the owner..........not yet :mrgreen:
