how big is your scoop ?
Well i still can't decide whether its a bonnet scoop or change to bike carbs and probably not need one. Because of the extra cost with the bike
carbs im swaying towards the scoop . The only problem is that it would have to be quite a high one. Not sure if it would be possible to do it without
it looking silly. So if anybody has any pics of big scoops on their bonnets i would be very gratefull if they could show me them so i could get an
idea of how they look. Also if you could give their dimensions as well that would be great ! Oh i think my scoop would have to be over 3 inches high!
Cheers !

Biggest off the shelf one is a Dax one as shown fitted on my car. It's tall but quite long so doesn't look too out of place.

Hi Iain ! That looks very good ! Its well proportioned and is probably exactly what i would need . Could i ask you to measure the
distance from the top of the scoop to the top of the bonnet please ? Cheers - nick.

If it's the hight of the scoop you want it's about 100mm at the front, if you want any other dimensions please let me now
