    I think the Shaker hood is the best look of all the Challenger hoods.

    I agree. It is really close to the shaker hood on the 1970 Challenger.

    Hello,
    Just got a 2021 with the shaker hood.
    Traded in my 2018 dodge Durango SRT.

    While the Shaker does give that "old-school" look, it actually gives decreased performance. Form over function.

    That wasn't the case with the original 1970 shaker that was mounted directly on top of the carburetor.

    Here is a photo of the shaker base that directly sat on top of the twin four barrel carburetors.
