Cervini's '67 hood?

Does anyone have the Cervini's '67 hood? It's one of the hoods I'm considering but was wondering if anyone has issues with water entering the scoops. I'm going to be getting a polished Whipple and don't like the idea of water splashing on the pretty little thing.

If you're driving in the rain, you are going to get water into the engine bay with any hood that has open scoops.

Edit: Forgot to mention I have the cervini's ram-air hood. It gets water in the compartment. That being said it doesn't have the lip in it that 05yellowgt mentions either.

I have original RK Sport ram air hood , which looks to be very similar in design , and I don't really have any problem with the water getting into the engine compartment. The opening into the engine compartment has a lip around it and cavity in the hood would need to fill up with about a 1/2" of water before it would overflow into the compartment. I've had it on for about 5 years and as I said I've had no problems ...

This is the only hood I want for my car. I have kept my stock hood for this long and the look of this one would compliment my "67 GT350 tribute car (sans any Shelby badging as I don't do that) perfectly. I just need some more pics of the hood on some cars.
