Re: Artwork - 2008 Challenger Shaker photoshop
I owned a 1971 'Cuda with a shaker. It was the only cold air system offered. The stock hoods (except the ones on the 340 AAR 'Cuda and the Challenger T/A) were nonfunctional, unlike the scoops on the 2008 Challenger concept car.
The opening of the shaker hood scoop had the optimum amount of square inch area. The cold air ram effect was good for 5 mph on the top end (for street cars).
I agree, however, that a further increase in power could have been obtained with a bigger (higher) hood scoop in cars with more sophisticated intakes that could use the extra air (i.e., cars set up exclusively for drag racing, like the SS Challenger that debuted at the SEMA show).
I want to see the new Challenger with a shaker option.
Guys, it was an awesome exerience to be sitting at a red light and watching the other driver along side of you being hypnotized by the i.e.q.c.a.g. (Plymouth initials for the shaker- the "incredible exposed quivering cold air grabber").
