Through the hood
why do some cars have engines that reach out of the hood? it's never the cylinder head or anything, just what looks like a bigger intake

Re: Through the hood
yep...its either the throttle body sits up higher or its ram air induction, most of the time its fake like on the mustang's with the hood scoops(except the mach1's) and on some of the new dodge rams.

You answered your own question. The intake is taller than what the car had stock.

Re: Through the hood
Most of the time it will be either a high rise intake or a supercharger. I think the guy above me did a great job of answering the question also.
