Funny story of my 68 Bird 400 and RA.
68 doesnt have any flappers.Its all or nothing.
I made some foam plugs to insert in the open scoops as we get a lot of rain here.
Before that I would just change the scoops to closed ones.
I put closed scoops on so I could wash car,was going around the block to dry it off.
First stop I revved it to get started and thought I saw top of hood move.
Sure enough when revved it would suck the hood down then pop up when I let off.
I idled back to the house and changed back to open scoops.
