Shaker + a SC? - 10/7/2007 5:44:46 PM    Yonco   Posts: 645 Joined: 9/30/2006 Status: offline Well, my 71 is out the door very soon, got a FOR SURE offer at 8000$ and have 2 other guys  coming to check to see if they will do 8500. I want to spend a bit to put a SC on my 06. I have a Shaker ram air on it and i dont want to sacrifice it but dont know what kind of clearence i will need for a SC.  Im assuming any type of twin screw's housing will be taller than the stock intake manifold? And then the SC will be to tall and the scoop wont fit on. Also, a centri will put all of the parts in front and have them out of the way so i feel a centri would be my only option.  I was looking for a twin screw originally and want to stay that way. The shaker hood is fiberglass and is an inch taller in the front because of the nose point and the shaker scoop takes up quite a bit inside the enigne bay. Does anyone know what i can get away with  without getting rid of my shaker?  Btw in the last picture you can see that the ram air isnt functional, the PO took off the CAI which it needs for it to be  functional( any cai located at front drivers side will work)   -Jon < Message edited by Yonco -- 10/7/2007 5:47:55 PM > _____________________________ 2006 GT / FANG Shaker+ Fiberglass Hood / Hurst STS / C&L +Brenspeed 93 / Boomtube Crew Member / LCA's 13.28@107 Post #: 1
