Would a Shaker hood work with this 6 pack tunnel ram intake?
« on: August 18, 2008 - 05:45:40 PM »
Just wondering if any of you guys have ever ran this intake with a shaker hood, I doubt it would work, but I noticed that my shaker doesn't stick out far enough just on stock intake alone. How much taller would this set up be anyway?  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=34198&viewitem=&item=130246271143&_trksid=p3907.m29

This can be done, but it is a bit of work.  My buddy did the exact thing on his Cuda using the same intake, but it took a lot of work and fiberglass.  The bubble sits up a lot higher, so a stock one will not fit.  You either have to make your own bubble or cut up a repro.

This will give you some idea about how high up my carbs are above my stock hood.

I've got one of them i'm setting up for my 69 cuda.
Just got the linkages sorted so it is happening although slowly.

Burnouts are cool but Traction is the Action
