Alternative: paint it matte grey with a glossy black stripe.

Gotta love a shaker hood. That’s one of my favorite parts of the early 2000's Mach 1.

shaker hood with supercharger?

Unless you want to make said supercharger pop out of the hood, I’m not sure how that would work...

the eaton-style twin screw superchargers, like the edelbrock e-force, actually don’t sit any higher than the stock intake manifold. it would take quite a bit of customization but the shaker should still fit (although it wouldn’t be functional as an air intake). You could also go with a centrifugal supercharger, like a procharger. it might be easier to hook up the intake plumbing, as that supercharger’s inlet is on the rear

procharger might be the way to go, but that’s not anywhere near as fun as an Eaton.

And yeah, you wouldn’t be able to use the Shaker as an intake, but it’s not like Dodge used it in the first place.

I’d be worried about heat coming off the blower melting the plastic shaker, too.

Procharger makes as much power as eaton, is an easier install, costs about $1000 less, and as long as you don’t get the helical gears, still has that nice blower whine.

call me old-fashioned, but I don’t like the look however...
