just posting the atticipation...........................

Here it is right out of the box, Saturday the hood carnage begins also awaiting reference pictures of a superchager/ shaker install from CDC, but that will be a few months down the road.

 

post pics when you get it

 

I thought about naming her The Auto Martini Maker as it will be Shaken and Stirred

 

I have a question on the shaker.....

what is it made out of? Is everything plastic?

This is kit is on my short list.

 

The scoop itself is cast aluminum. Everything else is plastic.

 

Thanks! Man, I can not type today, or proof read evidentally.....

 

Does it feel like it could be painted? I dont know if the contrast
in blacks would look good with my stripes.

 

Yes, it can be painted I am debating getting mine airbrushed...
But you could paint it solid as well

 

Hey CD - thanks for sharing the pic of the CDC kit.....I've been on the fence about this mod for some time now....what did you pay and I'm assuming this is the "non-hood" kit where you must cut your stock hood? Be sure to "Measure Twice"

 

You could paint it if you wanted but I don't think that the difference between the stripes and the scoop are worth the trouble.

 

Does anybody know what is the width of the protective ring (from outer edge to outer edge), at it's widest point?

I'm thinking about a stripe idea that has a little larger gap and outer stripe than the original 1970 design (kinda like this picture)

 

It was $831 after shipping straight from CDC as for Be sure to "Measure Twice"
My template for cutting the hood was too small and had to trim more hood to get the trim ring to fit. I did it yesterday so I couldn't call their Tech support, but I am pleased how it all turned out.
I will post more pictures of my install later today.

 

That is odd that the template was too small. First time I have heard of that one Glad to see you got it installed. Told ya it wasn't that bad

 

I was missing my air box cap as well and had to fabricate one
