I am about 70% done with the scoop. To clean out the innerds I plunged a 5/8 ball nose mill into the nose. The chips swirling around scuffed up the inside pretty good. After machining the bottom and fitting it to the carbs, if the finish is decent, i'm going to sand blast it inside and polish the outside to a super shine. I hope to finish it up today and see what I end up with.

We got'er!

Still needs some buffing and polishing. I also want to take the dremel tool to the inside and clean that up somewhat. Over all I'm happy with it.

Now, what's sad is we gotta have one of them sexy black covers to go over the scoop. Put it on, take a couple of pics and then let's let her rip. :ThumbsUp:

Yo Bubba, can you give me the measurements for the inlet of the blower. I got the sewing crew on standby.
