Getting the 'Scoop' on Factory Air Induction and Scoops.

Chrysler 1968

Bob Cahill ~ Product Planning


The engineer's were designing a 'Fresh-Air Induction System' to be utilized on
the B-Body cars.

They came up with the idea of the under-hood box unit during the end of the
1968 Production year {June 1968}.

We actually fitted a few units on several of the late-production 1968 Road Runner
426 'Street Hemi' cars. Maybe 3 or 4, that were for the guys that had corporate
company-test cars.

We called it, an Under-Hood 'Fresh-Air Induction System'. The Marketing Department
then came up with a few monikers for the system for the 1969 Model/Production Year.
