Shelby vs Ford Performance?
I have a coworker who just bought a 2016 Shelby GT350. I said, Ford made a good car, with the 350. He got defensive, saying his car was a Shelby. Not a Ford. It says Shelby, so it was built by them. I told him that the 350/350R was built by Ford Performance. Not Shelby. So, how can you tell if your car was completed by Shelby American, or Ford Performance?
It's a Ford, it was built at the Flat Rock plant like every other Mustang. The 5.2L Voodoo engine was built at the Romeo plant on the niche line. The car was not built or even touched by Shelby. Shelby does still make their own Mustangs (they take stock Mustangs from Ford and modify them like they did in the old days) as you can see here http://www.shelbyamerican.com/?topic=vehicles. But the GT-350 is a Ford product.
HI as this shelby cobra was the first car that kim selby dis some tuning on back in the early 1960's for racing. He used a classic AC cobra so. It was not a Ford.
it had a Ford V8 engine which Kim shelby worked on. So after his death some years ago the tuning was taken over by Ford themsleves. So it is very doubtful that any where left that Kim shelby worked on, his son has carried on with tuning some mostly only for the racing professionals.
- Where can I go to buy a Ford Shelby GR 1 Concept 2005? I've looked online but can't find anywhere. Are they so rare that nobody can even sell them now?
- When did ford start putting superchargers in their shelby mustangs? What year did shelby start using superchargers? I honestly can't remember I'm curious about that.
- What are some good things to do to my 2007 Ford V6 Mustang to get some more power and performance? I want to get more power and better performance out of my V6 and no I don't want to trade up for a V8. I inherited this car and its paid off and only has 11,000 miles on it. Not to mention sentimental value so please leave your hate for V6s for someone else. I just want to know some cost effective ways to get more out of my stang. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
- Difference between Ford Mustang GT500 and Ford Shelby? I'm just getting started into cars and would like to know the difference in the exterior, interior, engine, horse power, and everything else.
