I would be willing to pay $1,000 more for a functional shaker hood from the factory. Would any one else?
I would. That is in the ballpark with the price of the original shakers on the 1970-71 Challengers and 'Cudas. Back in those days, the shaker was a $97 option on a $3,500 car (2.8% of the sales price). Remember, you are not only paying for the shaker air scoop and related hardware, but also a different hood.
I would love to see this option on a production car. If were to come though, you can bet it'll be expensive and I would bet it would be limited to short run. The new Challengers aren’t set up the way the old ones where. It wont be as simple as putting the shaker and carb together on the manifold. The new challengers throttle body is at the front of the engine. To put a Shaker on you’re looking at a major rework of the air induction system.
