The single most difficult thing is getting the bolts that hold the front bracket to the Throttle Bore frame is a funn game. but myself and a few others added longer bolts and spacers under the mounting bracket to raise the scoop higher, which in turn made it easier to get to said bolts.

Sorry its not Grey, but I'll post it since its a Coupe unlike PWs and Ropers verts. PW hit it all right on the head. The biggest thing is getting over the fact that you are about to cut a huge hole in the hood, however once you score the paint/template, your pretty much past the point of no return.
Template alignment was the hardest part, make sure you measure a few times. Also, you might want to use a dremel tool or something to cut away some of the plastic from the front of the Shaker where it surrounds the throttle body. It makes it MUCH easier to get to the throttle body bolts when installing the unit. I just used some black door edge guard moulding to make the cuts look a little prettier.

ONE thing for SURE!
Every where you go!
Every one who stops!
The SHAKER always gets attention!
My car sat between a couple of VERY Sweet Mustangs last weekend at a Ford Only Car Show.
Nearly EVERY who stopped at my car concentrated on looking at the Shaker, most of them discussed it between themselves.
I watch as they walked by... the cars on either side of mine got 60 seconds of attention, and they stopped at mine an average of 3 minutes per stop, with the shaker being the attractor.
