I am going to use the intake on a 347 in my Cobra.
I need to find a hood for it. I know the Roush hoods are almost impossible to find, but I doubt that Roush made them in house, so does any one know who made them? There is probably a mold sitting unused somewhere.
If that is a dead end, are there any good ways to fit it under a stock hood. Please don't say Cobra R, I don't want to look like every other Cobra wannabe, that is why I bought a real Cobra. Would a tubular K member with 1" engine setback and a set of drop mounts get me close?
(by the way, so no one gets confused, 94/95 Cobra's used the same hood as the GT/V6 cars)
Now for my contribution. No one seems to know what one of these intakes will do for power with the exception that Roush had a supercharged version that made 632hp I believe.
I found several posts on the Corral about a guy who had a Roush intake on a 347 with AFR 185 heads and made 408 rwhp. That's pretty impressive for a 347, even if the dyno was reading 10% high. What is more impressive is that the computer was improperly tuned, and the stock rev limiter was not defeated, so that 408 was recorded just as the rev limiter was ending the party.
Mine is going to be built to rev, and I won't give up untill I see 400 at the wheels, but I'm shooting for 450.

Ok I'll try to live up to the Old School rep ... thanks for the vote of confidence Kev.
The question about the hood has come up before several times.
1. 2. 3.
REF: intake
Conventional answer
is the Cobra R or any elevated hood for the cowl induction. But, I think you could do it with the Heat Extractor hood ... the material towards the back could worked to allow for some airflow similar to the ROUSH Cowl Hood. That's just an option I keep reminding folks who
don't want the Cobra R hood.
Now the
brochure advertises ...

They claimed it added "47HP to your stock 5.0"! With GT-40 heads, up to 99HP, and with Roush CNC-ported GT-40 heads, up to a 120HP gain!

... so I'd say the intake flows well with any prepped heads. I don't recall a comparision between the ROUSH 200s and their CNC'ed heads.
Sorry. But, the best answer would come from BDR {BigDaddyRoush}. PM him if he doesn't chime in, he could probably give you a better idea of the comparison.
Hope this helps.
