I just saw this thread and thought I would put my 2 cents in. I owned a 13 Shelby GT500 for 4 years, had every option, but the Glass Roof, which would have been nice. The car is everything people say, fast for stock, massive torque, great gearbox but the final gearing is very tall, so a gear...

The thing that i really like about the Whipple oversized is that it extends much higher up and would be in a good air stream vs about everybody else'e HX's. Fan's are a good idea at low speeds, but the additional load on the electrical system, the noise, etc. I know fans are the norm now days...

Guys, If updating the stock Heat Exchanger for lower IAT2's, Would the VMP Dual Fan HX be better than the Whipple over sized with no fans. The Whipple is huge. The location of the HX is blocked by the huge front bumper/Crash bar, so it makes you wonder how any of them see any air. One is...

There is a hell of a weight difference between the two, so hard to compare. 3,300 vs over 4,000 on the Shelby or what ever it will be. Ford is being very tight lipped about the weight of the new GT500. That alone is huge advantage for the C8. It should do everything better.

Plus, I think the 13-14 got cheated on tires. Crappy Goodyears and only a 265 on the front would not help with stopping power. Tires have advanced along with the cars in past few years.

Group, I don't want to beat a dead horse, but with the 2020 GT500 being able to do a 0-100-0 MPH in 10.7 seconds, was there ever a test done with our 13-14 Gt500's. All I could find was a Car and Driver test that had a 0-100 in 7.7 seconds. I know the 2020 will be better at everything, but I...

"I've got to work on my gas pedal it appears. " Now that's what I call Racing Stripes. Thats Awesome.

Not to derail this thread, but if a person puts a 2.4 pulley on, must you change belt length, idler, etc? I have been thinking about doing a 2.4, but here too, only 91 octane fuel and when I did my intake and twin 67, my tuner advised i was pushing the 91. Not sure if it would be worth the risk.

I think if I could do the front's again, I would do the 275 as the 265 just don't look wide enough on the rim. I tried taking a picture, but it would not post up.

I went with the stock size on the MPSS as the 4' were only available for the rear when I did mine. The front's look small to me, not wide enough. Sent from my SM-G955U using the svtperformance.com mobile app

Ya know, There are times when I wish my 13 GT500 was an Auto, such as heavy traffic or when somebody wants a pull form a stop light. It would be much easier to launch consistently. But then, just driving and rowing the gears, that is were the fun of a manual trans is fun and enjoyable. Don't...

I know when I first saw a picture of the new 2020 GT500, I did not say Holy Shit as I think we knew it would be like a GT350 on Steroids, so we were ready. The power and features on the 13, when it came out, I did say holy F#@king Shit. it was a hugh advance in power, speed, adjustable...

Yes, The 2020 GT500 will be a superior car to the 13-14 GT500's, but there will be things about the 13-14 that will always stand out. Last car that Mr. Shelby had input and put his hands on in the Pre Production cars. 5.8 engine was made only for 2 years and for the 13-14 GT500 only. The 13...
