Will your CDC Shaker Kit work with a stock Mach 1 Hood? Our Shaker
System will not work with the factory Mach 1 Hood. The CDC Shaker
will sit to low and too far back in the factory hood's opening. Modifying
the mounting brackets to adjust the Shaker in the factory hood will
alter the relationship of the Shaker to the air filter housing, thus
rendering the CDC Shaker Air Tube unusable and the system non-functioning....YA
RIGHT
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I can tell you that you can use a CDC shaker kit with a Mach
1 hood…it is true that it does in fact sit too low and far back
by about ¾ in but this is easily solved by fabricating a spacer and
a bracket for the front CDC bracket and a bit of twist and bend in
the back bracket is all you need. The intake fits just fine with only
a small clearance issue with the radiator overflow bracket…this is
solved with a dermel tool. The drain pan on a stock Mach shaker is
larger than the CDC drain pan…we solved this small problem by
fabricating a bracket out of fiberglass and affixed it to the underside
of the Mach 1 hood. The appliqué was then cut and attached to this
bracket. Basically the appliqué was used but on the underside not
the top
The pics below should give you a clearer picture on how all this was
done…we should have taken a few more but you know how it is
when you get into a project…you forget to take pics
I realize this (awesome) write-up is probably at least 7 years old, but I'm wondering if the original poster is still around/available? I've got a 2002 Mustang GT (coincidentally, Mineral Gray, as the Mustang in this write-up appears to be!) that I bought about 2/½ years ago, and I've always wanted to put the CDC shaker hood scoop system on it. I'd also like to use the Mach 1 hood with it, and I've got some questions about doing that, as I'm not quite clear about every step of these instructions. Thank you.
I HAVE A OEM SHAKER ASSEMBLY I INSTALLED ON MY 01 GT WITH CUSTOM BRACKETS I PURCHASED ONLINE FOR 85.00. MY PROB IS THE ABSORBER BUSHINGS ( I CALL THEM) THAT GO BETWEEN THE SCOOP N BRACKET ARE BROKE ON MINE, DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO GET THESE?
OK, not holding out much hope of getting a response from you either, but what the hell - where did you get the brackets to mount the OE Mach 1 shaker scoop to your GT? As far as I can tell, no one has them available any longer. You wouldn't still happen to have them, and would be interested in selling them, do you? Thanks.
