Ashley, please do not take this as a personal attack, but I think you are missing the point of what we do here. Fix the hood. The model does not dictate how the model turns out. Besides this is a Cannonball CBP, a racer without a hood would not do well in a rain storm.
The MPC '67 Charger had a 426 w/ a crossram.
Check the Revell '67 and '68 Charger kits for the deeper Cragars. Not positive if they were deeper, but they were supposed to go with the kit supplied cheater slicks.
The two times I've tried to correct a twist in body or chassis, the twist came back later on, after the car was finished. I advise the replacement of the part entirely. It's just not worth the headache. If it's a recently released kit, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
All of the above. Whether it's a throaty rumble, or a roar that scares small animals for three miles, and makes Ralph Nader wet himself, I love the sound of aggressive exhaust, no matter it's source.
The Burton batmobile captured my imagination like no other. It just exuded power and armor and stealth and oh-so-much Bat-style!
It just doesn't get any better than this.
Quick update. Some big 'ol fat-nasty sidepipes. They will be flat black to contrast with the green body and the aluminum heat shields will get polished up some .
I think you did a good job. It looks just fine. I wouldn't worry to much about adding extra stuff just yet. Learn to build as cleanly as you possibly can, then, start adding more detail.
