That's really good news...more options. Maybe now a custom wheel setup....19's in rear and 18's in front.

by Shelby10' 1/12/2011, 7:51 pm

I hope they come out with it soon.....Want some of you to test the effectiveness before I spend my money hehe

Just kidding...

On a side note: Not sure how well 19'' Drs will work....sidewall is the key...18's seem to be the limit so far. Kind of curious now the added inch and lessened sidewall will effect the grip

I was thinking the same thing too. Given the current heighth of the 18" MT's. Will be interesting to see how they manage the sidewall. Also wonder how they'll fit on a Challenger SRT8. C'mon man the Shelby...any Shelby was never meant to stay stock. :)
Ford looked for the cheapest route to get a 500hp car to consumers....meaning bare minimum everything. That stock heat exchanger really blows...lol I'm so glad I got the Shelby one installed. There's my two cents, now you can get it too.

by ShelbyJosh'09 1/12/2011, 10:21 pm

Anyone buy the Shelby branded quicklift made by Red Line?? They require some drilling, but they sure look good. I want to get a set since I plan on getting a much nicer radiator cover. Why did Ford use a hood prop? :( Then again most muscle cars have them.

by Shelby10' 1/13/2011, 12:06 am

I'll purchase the heat exchanger Down the road. It's 2nd on my list after pulley and tune install. You are correct, stock heat exchanger sucks

Go big or go home.

It's being special made.

Well if you take anything to David....Just know he takes your car to lunch when you leave it with him, and calls it a justifiable joyride and part of making sure everything is A OK.

My 07 GT had the privilage to transport David to lunch on more than one occasion.....I believe his comments when I picked her up were

"Man your shit is slow"
"I grabbed the hell out of second gear and it didnt spin a bit....low on HP I guess"
"I tore your shit up!"
"Sorry about your tread"
"Only got her sideways a few times...didnt come close to the ditch like I do in mine"
etc etc etc

He even bent one of Pauls wheels! And he also leaves his lunch remnants in the car for you to clean up later. When my car was there he took all my spare change and put my tires on the wrong way. Two weeks later I found a half eaten big Mac under the passenger seat wrapped in a size XXL thong marked "property of the landing strip". I believe this is a strip club he frequents which features very large women? Anyway besides all that he does good work. lol

Man, don't forget I go to north tulsa and pick some female hookers up for my lunch break also, guess you guys didn't find any of the rubbers yet I left in the back seat! lol!

by Oldokie 1/14/2011, 10:20 am

Great! Now I'm afraid to look under the seats of my car!

Well the GT500 is a HO JOCKEY-ing cruiser. Leonard don't let them catch you on those dirty lube jobs. ahahaha

I just checked my mail and in came my Shelby American vehicle authenticity certificate. It reminds me of that piece of paper I received when graduating...lol. Well at least I got mine for free...only had to pay like $6.00 for shipping. Keep in mind they're no longer free. It will cost $20 Shelby bucks. evillaugh

Oh nozzzz I never looked under the seats before i sold my car......new owner is probably in for a surprise lol!

Bad David!!!

leonard...By the way....how much for an oil change on the Shelby? Cheaper to use ford to fill with oil or buy my own and take it to you?

by Leonard 95 1/14/2011, 8:01 pm

Something like a gt500, I would perfer to do the oil changes through shop, that way if you have problems you have oil change records.

How much are oil changes for our GT500s through Ford?

by loweredf1 1/14/2011, 10:02 pm

i swapped to red line with a bottle of zddp additive after all the oil discussion on svt. oil will be the least of my problems if i have to take mine in for a major warrenty problem though lol!

Not for sure, probably have 60 in oil and filter alone. I would say around 80ish with tax etc.

by 07Shelby500 1/14/2011, 11:14 pm

Are they calling for a full synthetic from ford or just the same old fomoco oil?

Motorcraft full synthetic 5w50

by Shelby10' 1/15/2011, 1:31 am

Found it for $7.19 per quart....quite a bit cheaper than ford would charge I think
