Default Side Covers (what do you think)
I have a warped 70-74 Pontiac Formula hood. Im thinking of cutting the scoops off and glassing them to my side covers on the 582.

I think it would be a good look

How wide is one scoop, about 10" and about 20-24" long? If it doesn't overpower the side panels I think it would look good. BUT, what a nice hood, can the warp not be taken out with heat or another method?

the hood is all fiberglass. its bowed and twisted . it would cost more to fix then to find a good hood. I have 3 other hoods , this is the only one I have for parts.

Well then, slap me and call me stupid
I still think it will look pretty cool if it isn't overbearing

I was thinking about that, putting one on the hood. but think the side air draw would look better


but they are too big for the sides. I have another idea, using the air extractors that are in the fenders. they are small and would look just as good.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
