Hey guys,
Has anyone fit a 3.6LC Kenne Bell under the new versions of the Super Snake hood on a 2007-2009 GT500?
I realize that the Super Snakes that Shelby offers does provide a 3.6 option, and they have to be able to get the superchargers under the hood. Having spoken to Shelby's customer service department on several occassions, I still don't feel confident that things will clear. I am told it should clear, but if it doesn't for whatever reason, then I will have a very expensive ornament.
Currently I am utilizing a Cervini Type IV Ram Air hood with 1/2" lowering motor mounts, which barely clears the supercharger. I purchased the hood at a time when the Super Snake hoods were not available. My current hood and the Super Snake hood are both heavy.
I want to switch over to a BMR K-Member with the 1/2" lowering mounts with a possible Super Snake hood. It is my understanding that the K-Member may not lower a full 1/2" (that it might be 3/8").
In any event, if anyone has a Super Snake hood on a 2007-2009 GT500 with a 3.6LC Kenne Bell I would like to hear from you. How much clearance do you find that you have? Did you utilize lowering motor mounts or K-Member?
Any details that you wish to share about the quality of the new Super Snake hoods, including fitment issues, would also be welcomed.
Thanks!
