    I would be interested in the shaker hood if I could see just how much they shake... If it shakes enough I would like it... Does anyone have any videos that clearly show how much they actually move?

    Open your hood and watch your engine. That is how much they move. Although if you pull off a plug wire or break a motor mount, they move a whole lot more.  ;D

     :iagree: :roflsmiley: 

    But seriously, does anyone out there have a 72-74 Challenger with a Shaker.  I've got a 440-6 in my 73 with the Rallye hood, but I've been toying with the idea of putting on a Shaker, but not sure how it would look with the late body grill.  I don't recall ever seeing one.

    Never seen a later Chally with one :dunno:   I REALLY like shakers. Don't get me wrong... They are S I C K !!    The AAR stripe is sentimental to me. The stripe doesn't go with the shaker IMO.  Makes it look pieced.   I guess I'll have to get another round taillight car with a 440 auto to put a shaker on...  :bricks1:   he he

    Wow, is that a special off road edition? That one has better ground clearance than a subaru 4 wd.

    I don't have the video but I do remember one that was posted here that showed the shaker while running.   :grinyes:

    We had a Trans Am with a shaker on it.  It was pretty cool to see it vibrate at idle then move when you rev up the engine.  I later put it on a '74 Bonneville.

    Although when the engine was out of tune, running rough, it looked a little embarrassing, letting the whole world see your engine running so rough.  :-\
