It could be dressed with some trim around the opening and coarse screen added to keep possums & squirrels out. Maybe I'll get inspired later and cut some different shapes and sizes out of black construction paper and stick 'em on to see if it looks too STOOPID. I wouldn't do it to either of my mild motored trucks but I might consider it with a performance engine swap. Hot rod engines do like cold dense air.
Maybe I didn't IMAGINE this, I might've seen a picture somewhere.

Ive also thought about this. If i had a junk hood to play with i would do.
