I found this on www.up22.com.
It as Mach1 style Ramair hoodscoop (not a shaker) that is meant for an 94-02 chevy S-10/S-15 that can be fiberglassed to your hood (that is if it fits the hoods contours). Their selling it for $119.95, their selling the completed version of the hood (for chevy S-10's) for 329.00 to 399.00.
If any one here is good with fiberglass they could have a nice looking hood :)

They also have other types of scoops and hoods for sale but no direct replacements for our cars :(

I think finding a hood that fits might be the easy part.... Making it a funtional Ram Air hood would be quite a challange.

There is something unique about our MM's. It's a rough looking car but at the same time elegant. These Ram Air, Cowl Induction hoods were created for muscle cars like The Trans Am, Z28, Monte Carlo, SS cars etc. Now you have cars like Bentley, Mercedes, Lincoln, you get the picture, you would never even think about putting one of those hoods on. So now here we are, The MM's, were in the middle. Though I am a fan of the Turbo type hoods having them on most of my previous cars, I think it will be difficult fabricating something that will compliment our MM's. "Bowman9" touched on finding someone good with fiberglass. I would go that route. We wouldn't want to ruin that unique look our MM's have.
