    When my scoop arrives, we could swap if you'd like? I purchased one off ebay and it is in good shape. I think reversed will give it a cool look and it would be like ram air.

    Sounds good, when you get it you could show some pics and I can get a few more of mine. If it is a pita for you or you would like to cut yours up different than mine that is no problem. I have enough things going on where I shouldn't be thinking about redoing my hood scoop.

    I didn't get anything done to the 40 this weekend. I got rained out on sand blasting. So, I'll have to wait until the end of the week for that. It is raining here and sleeting tonight into tomorrow. I did get sand and a new hood for the blaster. Too bad yesterday when I went to get my generator from my shop, I found my old hood. I guess I'll return the new one and get something else I can use.

    I did finally get my other Excursion I have been owed for about 3 years. I have it listed for sale and can hopefully buy more parts for the 40 once it is gone.
