SRT-10 Hood

[JTodd]

Hey Guys,



I recently had a little "mishap" that required my hood to be replaced. Since the insurance comapny was already paying for the new panel and paint and so on, I paid the difference in the price of the panel and had the dealership install an SRT-10 hood. I love the look, but the intake on the hood is functional in the SRT-10, but my Cummins doesnt have the appropriate intake ducting. So the end result is that I basically have a 3"x8" rainwater intake that dumps water on top of my motor when driving in the rain. In your opinions, is this going to cause me any problems? Do I need to worry with fabricating a plug of some sort?

No worries. I have had the SRT10 hood for several years now... . no issues to report with rain or snow.

had the same concern before i bought mine. As mentioned... nothing to worry about. the most it does is make your engine a little dirtier than it would be. water barely gets in. My insert is custom made to match my grill. I had a few made and a 2 left is you're interested. If anything, having it open help keep the motor a little cooler.....

I have the SRT-10 hood on my truck and had the same concerns so I used the grill insert from the "Daytona" package. Here is the part number if your interested 05174261AA. I think it was less than $20. 00. It's exactly the same as the SRT but no holes.

Marty - could you double check that part number? I've been wanting one of these inserts for my hood, but at least for the online parts sources it comes back as no part found.
