Its a simple mathematical equation:

BA/F GT + SHAKER = RICE.

black shaker with silver stripes.

get a fibreglass or carbon bonnet from AWC. whichever is cheaper. and get it painted. thus saving your original bonnet.

Well done, i was a skeptic of the BA shaker until i seen it on a car and Paul the guy who got the concept going took us for a 20 min drive...
it does put extra air into your air box, but thing i liked the most was it kept the plenum chamber cool, after the 20 min drive we put our hand on the plenum it was cool... The Boss likes it cool..

Interesting falcon Coupe that you follow my previous threads to find that post in my club forum, but yet you failed to miss my numerous posts on exactly how my shaker is plumbed into the air box, thus your whole fake air dam and/or vents rice theory is either lack of attention on your behalf, or just plain ignorance.

Unfortunately you are wrong.
I drove mine before shaker and obviously now. I noticed the difference.
So as not to be "fooled" I had before and after readings taken. The proof is on the paper with all the numbers and squiggly lines.

Whatever mate i'm over it, my last word on this is : The only Falcon that a shaker belongs on is an XY.

Each to their own guys. We can't tell other people how to live their lives. The secret to a happy life is to respect other people's decisions and let them do what they think is best. I'm all for freedom of expression, but saying something like "your car is crap, you've got taste in your a**e, you should listen to me" isn't really on. Way off topic, I know, but I'm just trying to bring some sense into this "shaker vs no shaker" debate.

The shaker originally came out on the 1969/70 mustang, specifically the boss 302's, it was then selected for the XY later on in the 70's(along with the rear spoiler design). Its the only two cars a shaker belongs on in my opinion.

You can attach whatever you want to a B series GT, but it wont make it unique as the cars mentioned above. What made them special was Homologation, their success on the track, their elevation to a near legend to the ford community. 3 Things that the B series GT's have not achieved, and wont achieve unless the current premier racing series changes dramatically.

slightly incorrect. the shaker was for any 69/70 mustang with a 351 or larger capacity. the option was unavailable on 1969 boss 302 but available on 1970 boss 302.
and your last sentance should be law :

There was a Silver BA GT at the show today in Geelong and it had the Black stripe's and a black shaker which complemented the vehicle, it was exactly what I wanted, a silver GT with black stripe's and a shaker, mmmmmm.
