Will a 79 pace car hood scoop fit on a 85-86 hood? Thanks.

I think so but don't quote me on it. It's not much different if any to the 82 scoops, right?

Isn't the hood relief larger on 83+ ? i don't think it'll fit great ... plus the front of the scoop might not fit the curve of the front of the hood.

Read what was asked " Pace Car Scoop "
The 83 ti 86 hood is longer @ the leading edge , so altho the scoop will physically fit the rest of the hood , the front won't match .

Yeah the front was what I was wondering about. Seems the 84 and under have a squared off hood in the front.

no, 83 and 84 have the same exact hood as 85 and 86.

The answer is no. It will not fit.

That's not quite what he was asking. He was asking if a 79 scoop, which has a different hood than a 86, will work. What Ash is saying is the 83 to 86 hood is longer @ the leading edge than the 79, so although the scoop will physically fit the rest of the hood , the front won't match. What I said was I thought the 79 scoop was the same or very simular to the 82 scoop, which I know will fit on the 85-86 hoods but I wasn't very sure on the 79's cause I haven't had much experience with them.
