Au contraire.  400% of zero is still zero.

If you do, make sure you use a GMC, not a Chevy hood.  The opening in the
front of the GMC hood allows additional cool air to the engine compartment
which will increase horsepower at least 400%.

In that case, can I put a '57 hood on my '54?  How much faster will it go?
So far top speed has been almost 60, but that was sitting on a trailer.
