2011 Whippled Shelby

[Knoxville COBRA]

My buddy just bought a 2011 Shelby Vert at a used car lot with a Whipple how do you tell what size it is ?

Sort of looks like a 2.9 crusher. Just call whipple and give them the serial number

Thanks man , just googled that and that looks like it may be whats on the car. I told him to call Whipple to be sure.:rockon:

Look at the silver plate between the front cover and main body. If there is 175 stamped into it it's a 2.9. There will be other numbers/letters to.

Looks like the ford racing 2.9 kit to me but check the numbers to be sure and get a/f gauge pronto.

Suprised they didn't pull off the supercharger before trading it in.

2.9. If it was a 3.4 the hood would be aftermarket or motor lowered and by the valve cover to brake distance it has stock mounts

Also look at the 2 support "ribs" coming from the pulley neck. The 3.4 and above have 3 ribs. The 2.9 only has 2. Smaller than 2.9 has no ribs.(?)

Probably didn't have the stock parts. I don't have mine anymore.

OP, make sure your buddy has the programmer that's supposed to go with it. If not, tell him to order one immediately! If something goes south and the car has to be returned to stock by the dealer, he's screwed because he won't be able to get the current tune back.

GT Premi is right on. The 3.4 has 3 ribs.

Ask him to look at the chrome ring on top of the blower near the front it may have a stamping on it, if it says 175hp its a 2.9. If it says 210hp its a 3.4- looks to be the 2.9 though.
