Default Shaker installed

Just installed the shaker from CDC.Amazing how it changed the attitude of the car. I used to own a Cobra-Jet Mach with a shaker ,nice to see that again from the drivers seat!!

legend gt,
Looks great! I like the hood stripes also.
Welcome to the 'Shaker' club.
I just trimmed down my plastic shroud on mine last weekend, I didn't like all that extra plastic on the motor. I've got a post in Appearance mods on that.

legend gt,
You going for the 69 or 70 Boss? I ended up going the 69 style, even though they didn't offer the Shaker that year. Plus, I've already owned a 70 Boss.
Look forward to meeting you here in the future. I'm in Marysville, work in Dublin.

John, just take your time! Follow the instructions to the t' .Tacobill has a very good pictorial of doing this. Just measure your center of your hood 3 times to get it perfect.I also recommend using a high quality varible speed saw with a very fine blade.The hood is aluminum and cuts easy.I also recommend using a few layers of tape(in instructions).Good luck.You'll love it!

I used a Craftmans variable speed saw and a 24tooth per inch blade will do it.I set the speed on the saw at 2 1/2 or 3.
