The obvious answer (to me), for hood clearance is the signature FORD Thunderbolt teardrop hood scoop. Looks great on almost any Ford but ridiculous on other makes and the "form follows function" . Please no Ford Tunnel Rams.
... powerband? You did not have to use any 'hood raising tricks" w/those glass bowl 1904s?

later with donated bent hood and JC Whitney scoop.

Mavericks' have lowest hood clearance of any Falcon based Ford. To fit the supercharger plumbing on top of the 74's 250, again I used a 'donor' VIN Comet GT's hood . Opened the hood to OEM GT scoop and still didn't fit so again cut for iconic T'Bolt scoop...

Donor had a very rotted body !
