Questions with Regard to the Shaker Hood - Attaching Feet & Grouding Straps.

[72ls5fla]

Hello ----


On a SixPack car, were the attaching feet installed from the factory?


Also - does anyone have a picture or two of the grounding straps installed?  I looked all over the assembly and can't find any.
Last thing I need is for the thing to build up a static charge.

Thank you in advance....

I ordered  the grounding straps - should have them next week.

Can anyone tell me if the 440 sixpack with the shaker would have come from the factory with the feet/supports?
If so, where do they hook up?

If anyone has a picture or two ot would be SO helpful.

The bubble bounces around some, even with the aircleaner wing-nuts tightened up pretty tight.

yes, 340 and 440 had them.

they were rubber coated L brackets that  rest on top the valve covers,

where and how do they attach to the base plate?

I am guessing that the feet are not spot welded to the valve cover - is that correct>  They just snuggly rest on it.

If you have a pciture that would be awsome.

BTW --  thanks for the link.

There is a bracket welded to the base plate that the "L" shaped foot bolts to.  The rubber coated foot just rests on top of the valve cover.

See the view in circle "W" below.

thank you so much!!!


I guess that the best way to proceed is to find where the feet would natuarally fit (up front) under the base plate, mark and weld the angled attaching brackes in.

I will order the kit from Roseville Monday.

This is a great forum - and thanks to all who helped!

I measured mine for you.  It looks to be about 6 3/8" towards the front from the center stud on the drivers side, and about 6" on the passenger side.
