MD3 Hood Scoop 5in Tall 18in Wide Curved Red

The MD3 Hood Scoop 5in Tall 18in Wide Curved Red from FIVESTAR is a purpose-built air induction hood scoop designed for dirt late model racing and high-performance street vehicles. This functional intake component pulls cool, undisturbed air from the front of the vehicle and channels it directly into your engine's induction system, improving volumetric efficiency and overall performance. Built for competitors and enthusiasts who demand authentic racing aesthetics combined with genuine aerodynamic benefit, this hood scoop has become a staple on competitive and modified vehicles.

Manufactured from durable plastic construction, the MD3 hood scoop features a curved bottom profile that optimizes airflow dynamics while maintaining structural integrity under high-speed conditions. The 5-inch height and 18-inch width provide substantial air intake surface area without creating excessive drag or weight penalty—at just 1.34 lbs, this scoop adds negligible mass to your vehicle. The curved design redirects ram air efficiently into your carburetor, fuel injection system, or custom intake manifold, effectively lowering intake air temperatures and increasing oxygen density at the throttle body. This thermodynamic advantage translates to measurable horsepower gains on dyno testing, especially when paired with quality carburetion or EFI tuning.

The MD3 hood scoop is ideal for dirt late model racers, street rod builders, and performance enthusiasts running carbureted or fuel-injected engines seeking legitimate competition-grade hardware. Installation requires hood modification to accommodate the scoop base—most builders route intake ducting from the scoop opening directly to the engine's air intake source using flexible tubing or custom fabricated passages. The bright red finish ensures high visibility and adds aggressive visual presence on track or street. Verify hood thickness and available clearance before purchase, as mounting hardware and ductwork configuration will depend on your specific vehicle platform and engine bay layout.
