Hood scoop tape

I missed something here too. I thought the foam tape on the outside of the scoop was being referred too. So what's the scoop?
I'm a little confused , is there a gasket to go between the scoop and hood like foam or is it the plastic black gasket go between the scoop and hood , I don't want the black plastic gasket .
 
If you look at the picture I posted. There is a remanence of a foam gasket on the back side of the hood scoop itself. I would think the cuda would also have it.
 
Posts 3 and 4 have the answer and a link to where to purchase.

OP will need to modify them as his/her hood has been cut open and the scoops as well.
 
Keep in mind that there are only two Mopar scoops that actually force air into the engine compartment, the Six Pack scoop used on 69 1/2+ B-Bodies and the Challenger T/A scoop. All other scoops (even opening up the Cuda scoops and the AAR scoops) just let hot are out as they are not two inches above the laminar flow boundary across the hood. Crap, I'm exposing my engineering degree! Please don't hold it against me!!

So don't expect 150 HP gain , damn , but I still like them open , kind of cool seeing the air cleaner through them .
 
The factory shaker did just that and nothing more! I'm pretty sure it got air flow from the gap between the scoop and base unfortunately.
 
I actually think the shacker hood does suck in air, but it's not a "ram air" effect. The true ram air effect is good for about 5hp.
