new hood, or cut a hole in the old one??
 
whats up guys, so i was looking at the Ram Air Shaker Scoop System (99-02 V6) on AM i would love to get one but where do i get the right hood for it? or do i just need to cut the one i have?

I'm pretty sure you need to cut the hood so it will fit.

either cut the hood or a stock one from the Mach 1.

Jacktheripper has a carbon fiber one that comes out cheaper since you do not have to paint it.

Do your research on this and make sure it fits.

The method i went was i bought a FRPP Shaker setup with a bracket modified by KarKraft that holds the shaker in place, since the shaker bracked was designed for the 4v engine. The only bracket Karkraft had was for the 4.6l 2v, not the 3.8l v6, and i dont think Karkraft even sells the one i used anymore.

The CDC or Roush setups have everything you need, but you need to cut a hole in them.

The CDC and Roush setups CAN work with a Mach 1 hood with some effort, but it does not normally fit and requires a bit of work, to give you an idea, check out the Link Wnracing put up, there is a decent amount of work but nothing staggering.


The CDC and Roush setups look good, personally i like having a real mach 1 hood instead of a modded GT hood, but you kinda have to go with what ya get i guess..
