Has anyone done or seen a Cuda with a Shaker Hood and bubble on a 6.1 hemi using the stock 6.1 intake manifold? Curious if there was a routing for ducting that looked good and functioned. I really don't know how much room is left above the engine on a 6.1 setup, but I'm guessing it wouldn't fit . Thanks Darren 69 Road Runner 383/auto/N96 71 Demon 340/4 spd Would like to find a rust free Cuda body.

You would need to get there baseplate and modify it to fit the bigger scoop. The mounting holes will be off so they will need to be relocated so the scoop would fit in the center of the hole. There will also be a hieght issue . The battery will need to be relocated because of the air box . 6361284-100_1790.jpg (224 downloads)

From what I understand that the baseplate will need to be cut in half and a 2" section made of fiberglass put in. The mounting holes will be off so they will need to be relocated. Also the hieght will need to be adjusted. 6361805-100_1431.jpg (175 downloads)

The picture of the kiesler cuda that Empire did has a shaker but with a FAST fuel injection(center of the motor) throttle body. The factory port injection is the way to go. 6361877-100_1772.jpg (133 downloads)

808CUDA top fuel Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 2,280	yep Keisler has a shaker on their 6.1 as well as my '71 Cuda with 6.1 Hemi. But an AAr quality fiberglass bubble, AMD hood and a Year One repo fiberglass outer adapter ring. attach the outer adapter ring to the fuel rail mounting bolts with some minor fabbing and bolt on on the bubble to t he adapter just as you would on a stock shaker. Not all that difficult and it fits.
