Sidthing 10 Report post Posted February 27, 2011 A previous owner added a shaker to my mach and it doesn't have holes for the engine badge on it. I've owned the car for 13 years so I know it's an original shaker from 69/70. I was curious if all non-boss 302 shakers had the holes for the engine badge, or if that was an option?

Fordrevhead 29 Report post Posted February 27, 2011 Debates show that the shaker badge may have been a running change in '69. In 70 none of them had the engine size on the shaker, hence no holes. I'll also point out that R code CJ's in both 68-70 had a "Cobra Jet" script emblem on the shaker and no "428" badge anywhere. This is on Mustangs only as Torino's and Fairlanes had a displacement fender badges I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
very fat and very dumb 40 Report post Posted February 27, 2011 My shaker does not have holes, my shaker base is from a Boss 302. You might want to post some photos of your shaker base. It could be from a Boss 302 and they are quite valuable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sidthing 10 Report post Posted February 27, 2011 From what I remember mine has the scoop, and the plate that holds the vacuum flapper, but I think the air cleaner base wasn't originally a shaker air cleaner and was just made to hold the scoop. I scored a 428 last fall and wanted to have the badges on it, but I didn't want to drill into the scoop if it was a boss part. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sidthing 10 Report post Posted February 28, 2011 I was just going to use an oxy acetylene torch to blow some holes in it. Just kidding. I will know what it has in it, and maybe if others don't I could have some fun, maybe make a few bucks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
