What colour was the hood scoop on a 1970 non-eliminator 428 ram air cougar? Was it black like the eliminator or body colour?

Last post

It was body color.

The Cobra Jet 428 entered production on April 1st 1968. The competition was praying that it was all just a big April Fool's joke, but sad for them...

I don't think any 428CJ had a 730 CFM Carburetor.
The Group 27F battery was not available in 1968 Cougars.

Mike,
The advice I give is do not purchase an after market unit, They're not even close. Find a good used original and strip/repaint.
