your hood does restrict air flow. open up your hood openings for better performance.

You could mount a pro-stock snorkel in place of your hood for some more rpm. :burnout:



Also your increased rpm might be from having the hood weight removed.

Try doing this with an almost empty tank of fuel and see if you get the same results.

Accurate measurements can only be attained when you're at the middle of the big lake.
 
Sheeesh! c'mon people now people now..

Thats why open air flow hoods and mods are for superstock class racing because it influences like it did..
