a "shaker hood" is one of those hoods with a hole in the top
and the airfilter poking thru, like on the late model Mach1's

called a shaker cause you could see the airfilter shaking on
those old school muscle cars they first came out on

It's just a neat CAI

Has anyone ever seen a shaker set up on a fox body? I've kinda been wandering if it would look right . Opinions anyone?

Looks bad and can leak water into your motor when it rains if it's not installed perfectly.[:'(]

in my opinion they look pretty bad i'd rather cut i hole in the hood and have the air cleaner sticking out.

Maybe if you could make a shaker cowl or hood scoop it would look good?

I cant see putting one on a fox body because of where the air intake is located.
