PostSubject: T/A Hood Venting System- Challenger Install w/ Pic's   25th February 2011, 8:14 pm

Well I started the install Figured I would post step by step as a "How to "
Sorry did not think of pics till after I started

Tools :Trim pulling tool, 1/4 " 10mm socket with ext & ratchet, Drill with a large bit (large enough for a Jig saw blade. Jig saw with a metal cutting blade ( fast cut ), some type of cover for motor . wood block. 2" tape, urithane caulk. straight edge.marker.saftey glasses.Clear packing tape. clamps.

1. Open hood

2. cover motor & fenders to protect form metal shavings nics ect...


3. remove sound insulator but using trim tool to remove fasteners.
4. remove hood scoop. 5-10mm nuts three at back , two either side center.
lift off from back first as front has hooks.
5. from underside, drill holes in the corners where hood reinforcement opens to hood outter panel

6. From top side connect the holes with straight edge & marker.


7. drop hood down, with a wood block to prop hood up, to give Jig saw blade room to move with out doing damage
to engine cover.

8. safely install blade into Jig saw & then plug in. put on safley glasses

****NOTE >>> be aware of windshield washer line. Tape back out of way <<<

******>>> Use of clear packing tape over cut lines will keep cut section of hood from flopping around<<

9. cut the hood section out using you marks as guide. try to get close to the reinforcement edge as possible with out cutting it. Be careful ,Take your time !!!

10. Once the first hole is completed . may want to use clamps to hold hood panel from vibrating as center was not secured to reinforcement ( on mine at least)

11. clean cut edges of burs and sharp edges. clean up as needed

12. Caulk the gap between the hood outter panel & reinforcement. to prevent dirt & water from getting in between panels.
**Un caulked

**Caulked

13. touch up edge after caulk has cured.*optional as will not be seen

****************Hole cutting completed****************


Venting unit install to follow .. stay tuned .. Same Camm fourm ,same Camm time.

Just A note on installing venting system.
There are 2 seperate parts ,
1- the large triangle
2- the snorkle

When installing. do the triangke part first so you has access to all holes for drilling & plastic rivets
then re fit the snorkle & tape back in place. drill & attach.

O.K. I did not like the way the Washer fluid hose crossed over the intake box.


So for about two dollars in parts . I re-directed the hose(will sell the kit on E-bay for $25.00 LOL)
Drilled some new holes,Touched up edges with paint. Installed clips over hose & then into holes in hood after paint dried.




But still was not done. I cut up my Hood insulator to make a template for re installing a new one.



once I have the template perfected. I will buy a new Hood insulator ,then trace & cut it to fit.
