Here are pics of the project so far. I am not not pleased with the finish on the shaker, I have much to learn about paint. I will likely widen the hood cut-out a bit. I shrunk it from what I had on my spare hood, but I don't think it looks wide enough.
I am thinking of getting somthing written on the shaker's side, maybe 350 LS1?

Gay and the show was gay, let me geuss your going to add all the buttons inside the car. But your going to make them all work to justify the gay tackyness...

Mod note: This post is absolutely pointless and IMO is only intended to start a confrontation. If you don't have anything constructive to add, then move on to another thread...let's stay on track. Thanks.

I saw the Advanced Designs front end on the black LT1 car. That is awesome! Maybe if your car was black it would look more Knightriderish. Not that red is a bad color, but seems odd for a Knightrider themed car.
Have you considered that Banshee looking paint job?
I don't know.
Just keep doing what your doing.

Has anyone just bolted a scoop onto it?!
I'm thinking of making a simple scoop looking thing that is not functional in front and then have a functional heat extractor in the back. Mold in it or not, it should still look pretty good.
Raleigh TA, how's your shaker coming along?

The whole shaker hood idea would be neat.... and what would be even better is of a new cowl piece was made to go along with it.... that was clearanced for something like the edlebrock intake, and say a 4150 style carb TB on top of it, and enough room for an air filter, or at least a small screen to keep big stuff out...... that would make for a worth while design.

No one is really driving carburated 4th gens. In fact, it's kind of illegal.
I imagine it wouldn't be too hard to make a shaker like that though. K&N offers all kinds of styles and sizes of filters, you would just need a baseplate and the shaker scoop and then just cut and bond them together.
