Shaker hood

Usually on the shaker that plastic pipe does move a little bit of air. The shaker is definitely more for looks than anything.

Love the Mach 1's from that era though, even if its mostly aesthetic, its a cool mod.

I'd be nervous about cutting into the hood though, definitely measure twice and cut once, no way if its wrong that it'll buff right out.
