MY problem is i have a 70 cuda with small block and a/c I want to put on a shaker hood. Does anybody know where i can a shaker that attaches to the hood and not the carb. Or is there a way i can relocate the ac compressor so a regular shaker would work

I have installed a Sanden compressor on a big block & it fit just fine under a 6 pack air cleaner which should be the same height as the shaker base I believe .
I have never done a Sanden rotary compressor on a small block under a shaker though .

I tried to contact Ben at shakerhood, I called and left a message and emailed and never received an answer. I knew he had passed away but I thought Family was going to continue the business. I ordered from tommychryco and got everything. Since he's in Canada there was an $78 Foreign transaction fee which I never expected. So be prepared for an extra fee. I don't know if there is anyway around that.

On their website it seemed like I could order the setup, but before I spend $2500 I want to make sure that carb spacing would be correct. That is why I called and left a message but no return call to me. I plan on using the edelbrock speed pro 4 set up and that is why I needed an answer. When I spoke to Tommy I told him what I had and he confirmed I had the correct spacing for the shaker setup. By the way it's going on a gen 2 hemi with the 2 throttle bodies and I had to make sure of the fit.

I have a SB '70 cuda with a shaker hood and the Sanden compressor and fits fine. If memory serves me correct I purchased the mounting brackets from Bouchillon Performance Engineering.
