The 'scoops' are rear facing for heat extraction, not air inlet. The air flowing over the hood creates a low pressure area at the openings plus the air in the engine bay has a slight amount of pressurization due to the air coming in the grill. This draws hot underhood air out. Just look at the late model Shelby GT500 for a similar design - and it works very well.

Thanks for the updates.
The LSA engine IS correct, however, the horsepower will NOT be 556, that's all I can say. Afterall, we want to exceed the GT500, not pace with it.

An heat extraction hood rather, like an Lancer Evolution, or the E46 M3 GTRs

SS in Heaven
Well then , we will have to put my SS up to the GT500 ! I cannot do the 556 HP, I actually got 546 RWHP on the Dyno! I was preying for the moderately strong 500 ish HP when Camaro was first prototyped but never we mind. I will have to stay with my SS unless I move it on up to a 500 HP Z06 or ZR1 ! That's not cool though.......I think when I get my CEL dilema sorted out I can go look for a GT500 ......it would be an interesting race!
