shaker scoop on T/A

I googled it and a company called it bandit II, it was made out of steel like stock hoods. Do any one know where I can find a fiberglass rep do they even sell those or get a shaker form a 2nd gen cut a hole in it and weatherstrip. Thanks for any input.

Yeah, used 2nd gen shaker scoops are actually somewhat affordable now that they're finally being reproduced. Definitely the route I'd go. If you want to be really cool though, you'll get the vacuum-activated flapper and somehow get it to work with your car.

I would drill a hole in the carb or intake some where be4 the blades. Put a fitting with a vac hose and at wot it opens that would be my guess its for a friend 15th ann T/A with a 400
