Nice job Larry... Looks good! You'll be hearing from me soon! Can the air filter be replaced with a common size filter, stocked by local auto parts stores?

"throw us bone"....?
dang,....in comparison to what other systems are available, i thought the price, not to mention the construction, would be enough for everyone!

Larry,
No disrespect intended... Just trying to drum up some business for ya ! As I previously stated, I'll be one of your customers in a month or so. As far as the other "other systems"... I know what you mean. I just purchased a new Blocker High Velocity Induction System (BHVIS) from Brian Baker, about the time you came out with your product. Although I got a good deal on the BHVIS, I still paid a "bit" more that what your systems sells for. And your product appears to be constructed much better!!!

DB,...never took your response in "disrespect"....my reply was just a little "sales-promotion" on my part.

I agree! Some engine setups may not benefit from the RPM intake. In such a case, my product is not needed since the factory air cleaner housing along with the scoop will fit under the hood with a regular intake.

Larry i will be purchasing one of these shakers when i get home if they are avaliable for 77 TA's, along with a set of those cool support brackets for the front end you have.
But i have one question. Do you have any plans for adding a snorkel or you just gona leave the shaker like it is. Also do you think not having the snorkels takes away from airflow any? Im running a t2 now with the stock shaker but it rubs the hood slightly, so i will probably want a shaker no matter if it has a snorkel or not, may even opt for a Dude scoop too LOL.
Mike

LG....no plans for a snorkel.
That would drive the cost up to have that fabbed.
Trying to keep pricing within reason.

Hi Larry,

Just got one of these from you tonight on ebay. To use it in my setup I'll probably have to do a little customization work (not on your part but on some of the surrounding pieces like the throttle cable bracket and such). But it looks impressive. I think it will work out wel for me. Cant wait to get it and start putting things together.

Ed

I must say Larry that this is quite impressive. You've contributed something to this hobby that was desperately needed. I was just going to use the original breather and drop the retaining ring by removing 1-1/4" of the breather for the RPM to work. Looks like you saved me the trouble by making yours sharp looking, as well as affordable. Affordability makes it all the more attractive. It'll be a while before I'm ready for it, but I must say, this is a blessing for T/A guys. I'm bookmarking this page right now. Thanks a million.
