Look real close... Kenne Bell supplied a block-off plate for the shaker as part of the complete kit.

Mine's wide open and while I try to avoid the rain, I get caught every now and then. Havent had any issues and the air flow over the blower helps keep engine bay temperatures lower at speed.

x2 except i have a 1inch shaker spacer as well with the bottom of the shaker cut to fit the eaton snout and front of the blower. Definately cools the engine bay down at highways speeds. I drive the car in the rain... never had a problem.
