Can't say a fake blower would be on the list of things I wanted on my car, but it's your money......Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

That is about the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Once word gets out that it's a fake you'll be the joke around town. What's the point really?"Now bring me those cheese sandwich appetizers you talked me out of."

I would point out he's going to put it on a Prostreet GREMLIN. Think about it!!!
Obviously he's got a great sense of humor................enjoy the grin!!!Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

Look closer guys, this is not a fake blower. The blower is real, what the scoop is doing is covering the carb on top of the blower to make it look like an injector.
The other option is a carb cover that looks like injector stacks without a blower, or possible injector stacks on top of a blower.
Certainly something a little different if a blower isn't different enough for you already.
PatOf course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

Or instead of a fake injection hat, you could convert one to EFI. It's a little pricey but iz' as close to mechanical as you can get for street use. When it's all put together the only obvious give away iz' the 1" plate between the hat & the blower case. That's the EFI rail."PLAN" your life like you will live to 120.

Looking closer on their web site shows a carb and an air cleaner inside the blower housing, be tough to fit the screws in there too!!! It's fake.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Hmmmmmm. Would that make it a "Manipulated Monica"?? Would the hat be an "Intern injector"??
