Hood Bulge vs Scoop

[71GSSDemon]

Maybe I missed this in the rule book, but can there be a bulge in the hood, not open on any side?  If so, are there rules to size, shape, spacing to windshield, etc. I am thinking the shape of what they are calling a Sunoco scoop, but not open.

My understanding is unless your class specifically permits bubbles or bulges like is permitted for Street roadster hood side panels, your hood "buldge" must be a functional air intake compliant with the hood scoop rules

I personally know a team that had to eliminate one and let the Procharger come through the hood they changed the intake and "Sorta Hid" the Prochager behind it.

Thanks guys.  Personally I don't see where it says you can't. Likely missing it tucked in another rule maybe?  I suppose in the wording "unaltered basic shape and contour".

Sorry, i was focusing on the hood and hood scoop rules until I reread the class section again.

it is almost unbelievable how many times you have to read and reread the entire rule book before you pick up the small nuances of a particular class

That's unfortunate... and fixable.
