.. too late. Some one baught it today for $500!
Oh well...

would have cost me more for a new hood anyways. Then it'll look funny when I do the GT500 front conversion in the future lol. Still very interesting to learn as much about the shaker hood as I did. For the longest time, I always thought it was a Ram air/intake manifold that was a suction/vacumme that literlay sucked in air straight into the engine lol.
