Install an '05-'06 Shaker Hoodscoop

13 Now the Shaker/engine cover assembly can be set in place, starting at the rear by inserting the ball stud on its underside into the socket previously clamped to the intake manifold.

14 As you lower the front of the assembly, locate the mass air harness above, and on the other side of the inlet duct, reconnect the vent line previously disconnected through the holes in the engine cover.

15 The engine cover secures at the front by reinstalling the two upper throttle-body bolts previously removed.

16 The lower airbox requires a 3-inch hole on its rear face, located with another supplied template.

17 Snap the supplied air duct into the hole you just sawed. Tabs on the duct will lock into the airbox.

18 Before reinstalling the airbox, insert the kit's plastic block-off plate into the factory airbox opening, thereby shutting out any hot underhood air. Install the kit's high-flow filter and bolt the lower airbox back into the car.

19 As you reinstall the airbox, slide on the kit's rubber coupler to join the two portions of Shaker discharge duct, and secure the coupler with the supplied stainless band clamps. Clip the airbox lid back on and you're done. Even with cutting the hood and airbox, the whole project shouldn't consume more than a couple hours' driveway time.
