The Super Scoop Blower will work on just about any 1/28th to 1/25th scale car, and makes a very dramatic statement. Installing the Blower is a very straightforward process, and can be done with basic skills and just a few simple tools. The only tricky part is making sure the hood hole is clean and square. Take your time and you will be rewarded with a clean job that you can be proud of.

• Super Scoop Blower
• 1/28th Scale Body
• Safety Glasses
• Side Cut Nippers
• Hobby Knife
• Needle File Set
• Phillips Screwdriver
• Epoxy Glue

Remove the hood from the car.

Tape the Super Scoop template onto the hood exactly where you want it using transparent packing tape that covers the entire hood.

You may want to put some extra layers of tape to protect the hood in case you slip.

Use your favorite plastic cutting tool to cut a hole in the hood slightly smaller than the template.

I prefer a Dremel tool for this job with a cutoff disc.

If you don't have a Dremel tool repeatedly cut over the line with your hobby knife until you cut through the hood.

Important! Wear safety glasses, because eyeballs are very expensive.

Here you can see the cuts I made with the Dremel.

Now use your hobby knife to finish the cuts making the corners sharp and at 90 degree angles.

Here's the hood with rough hole. Don't worry if it looks a little rough, we will take care of that in the next few steps.

Use the Needle File Set to clean up the edges.

This is the most important step and will make the difference between a great job and a lame one. You need to really take your time and get everything square and clean.

Since the paint color is impregnated into the plastic on this body, we don't even need to paint, just smooth the edges with the 320 grit sandpaper.

If your car has a cross member under the hood remove it with the Side Cut Nippers.

Test fit the blower in the hole, and remember you are not looking for a tight fit, there should be a reasonable gap around the blower.

A real blown engine moves around quite a bit with the massive torque it generates, so to look realistic, we also need a bit of room.

Cut down the Lexan support plate included with your Blower so it will fit under the hood.

Attach the Lexan backer to the blower using the screw provided. You can use epoxy also for more security.

Ignore the wire coming off the blower. I installed a micro motor in mine so the pulley system would spin. That's a tutorial for another day.

I'm sure you already know how to mix epoxy glue, so I won't bother with that.

Use the epoxy to attach the Lexan backer plate to the underside of the hood. Take care to get the blower straight.

You are ready to reinstall hood and enjoy your tricked out muscle car

Here is a tight rear angle showing the completed installation.

Notice how clean the hole edges are.

Here is the front angle of the finished job.

Nothing says power like a blower, and the classic Camaro is the perfect car for this upgrade. Now we just need Lithium, FETs and a hot motor to burn up the drag strip.
