Template for 70-72 Swinger hood w/dual scoops

Placing the scoops on a hood is easy. You don't need a template.

Some of the holes for the twin scoops are in the inner frame as stated.

Take a large deep well socket that fits these holes and place it in the hole upside down. Use a 3/8 or 1/2 transfer punch depending on the socket you use. Center punch the hole from the under side through the square in the socket. There will be four holes you can mark this way .

Turn the hood over and set the scoop in place to make sure these four line up to the dimples you put in. Some after market scoops are smaller and won't fit the original holes. Also 72 hoods have a place for Snorkle and twin scoops. use the correct holes.

Now drill these four holes 1/4" for now. Set the scoop in place with all studs in the scoop and align them with the holes you drilled. Move the scoop pressing down to make marks for the other four holes per side. Drill all holes 3/8 with a step drill including the first four you drilled 1/4 per side.

Presto the scoops are now fitted to the hood to the factory location. Remember to use bell nuts or the scoop will not get snug to the hood. You are all welcome and now I just put the guy selling the templates out of business. Unless' you are using a fiberglass hood this system works every time. Steve
