Cuda 440 six barrel shaker emblems were tapered from what I can remember. The text was tapered from front to back is what I mean, kind of to follow the bubble. May be wrong but this is what I had seen in the past as the difference between shaker and rally hood emblems.

Brushed finish on the 'cuda' part of the nameplate or chrome finish???
That will answer your question....
BTW rallye hood emblems have two pins not three.

The ones in the link are chrome finish on the CUDA name, whereas my original ones are brushed on the CUDA name. My originals also have the 3 pins. Are there any repros that are like the originals?

Thats Frank Mitchell and his chromed repops.Like mentioned earlier,they originally had a brushed finish on the "Cuda".I heard he had the original company in the Detroit area remake all these "NOS" emblems,but they could not dulpicate the brushed finish any more.Either a cost problem or EPA problem I heard

Can you guys confirm which ones are correct, original pieces? The two pin version? Did all shakers come with three holes?

My original shaker setup has 3 holes in the bubble, 3 pins with speednuts on the brushed CUDA emblem. Anyone repopping them correctly?

my shaker has 3 holes, but when I picked up the car in 1994, it only had 1 callout on it, with 2 prongs. I picked up a few NOS ones, but they were 2 prong emblems also. I've never seen a 3 prong emblem in person - but all the ones I have are brushed, not shiny. I'm sure my shaker bubble is original - looks like it has some time on the job, has some of the over spray on the underside, part #, and is in pretty used condition, and as far as I know, the repro's weren't out yet - Joe

Scott,
As the above poster was saying, I too took apart a real early built shaker (9-69) and it had 2 pin emblems in it (though it was drilled for three). It was an orig paint bubble, but whats the story on the emblems? Possible supply issue with the 3 pin ones and they threw on some 2 pin emblems instead? After all 2 pins are very commonplace but finding the real 3 pins is tough!

Paul I understand the "Never say never" deal but I'm gonna have to call you on that one, I know that you know your stuff but I've seen dozens of original bubbles on and off cars, never seen a factory one wearing 2 pin emblems. I'd guess they were replaced somewhere along the line (obviously a simple swap). Do you have any quality photos of your discoveries?

I wish I had a few dozen of these and not just the one I got from a garage clearout.
I sold it last year to a moparts member.

Shaker nameplates were all applied to the scoop by Fram before packaging the assembled units, sent via bedsteads to Hamtramck assembly.
The only nameplates they had in their facility were the 3 prong since that is all they dealt with.
As with Jules' photo, its always nice to have the original packaging to back up the real deal verses the all chrome repros.

Terry, we ready to get everyone jacked up yet about the shaker adapter rings? Come on, it will be fun and I think we owe it to all our friends here on the board. If you start it I'll post pictures with you of my examples.

Scott & Terry,
Thanks for the info on the emblems. The reason I was asking is because in the parts manual, specifically under shaker hood (sec23) it gives the emblem part number as 2998798, which is pictured-a 2 pin emblem.
