I noticed that too, Don. That's an awfully small CAI for a 1200 HP crank Shelby SS.

It was definitely a nice low-CSM and mileage 2014 SS with widebody, Signature Edition, and a holeshot option package. The new owner still got a killer deal.
I really wanted to find a signature edition, but they're hard to find, and yes, the standard SS emblems look perfect.
This is on a 2012 Shelby 1000 with the 4.0 whipple, it's the biggest intake whipple offered with their supercharger. The KB gimme 5 intake is bigger, I feel like KB more thought into their supercharger setup
Here's the link to that 1000

I wish we knew more about the build, maybe the car will show up on one of the Super Snake Facebook groups I follow, side note just to vent lol, (I absolutely hate the dick bags at JFK auto run the biggest SS group) but if it does show up I'll ask questions.
Since you can longer get the original SS faux gas cap anymore and I want my OE one reconditioned, I had a new aftermarket one made, I feel like it came out amazing.
Doesn't look like a stock Whipple zip tube, but still on the small side for that build.
Even their new blower intakes are on the small side, text from a new 3.8.
" Includes 132mm Roval throttle body and 123mm cold air intake "

I wonder if JFK snagged that SS? I sure would like more details on it; if JFK did indeed grab it, then they knew something was really rare about it.
SAI couldn't, or wouldn't, remanufacture your original faux cap?
It's very possible they did, especially with it being a signature edition widebody with low mileage.
And no, if your faux gas cap gets damaged or lost they can't replace it, so I had a backup one made. But they told me they can reconditioned my current one.
Mine is decent but it will need to be reconditioned here in the near future. I plan to have SAI send it out.
If that shelby was authentic and being a SE widebody w/1K package it would be worth 275K easy.
Mine is ok, but I want to get it looking perfect.
Yea, its in pretty good shape steve.
Got my off road X-pipe installed, I absolutely love how it sounds. Made a new YouTube video of all 3 setups.

I do agree that the off-road X-pipe sounds better on the SS than the H-pipe did. Can't wait to get my MM K-Member, ARH headers W/H-Pipe installed.Got my off road X-pipe installed, I absolutely love how it sounds. Made a new YouTube video of all 3 setups.

Thanks Vinnie
Are you planning on installing everything over the winter months?
Well, I'm prepping the car for storage right now. It's going to be stored in the next three weeks. Nothing planned for this winter, as I won't even have the car in my possession. I'm still contemplating how much I want to modify the SS. I only want to do this one time (Disassemble her). I really, really want to forge all the internals. But if I do that, the drivetrain, rear end, etc., etc., will have to be done.
Summer road construction surrounded me in a 3-mile radius this year. It's still going on. I only had her out 2 times this year. I'm really hoping to be able to just drive and enjoy the car next spring and summer.
The only thing I plan to do over the winter is get the radiator cover, windshield cowl and rear diffuser hydro-dipped carbon fiber and install them in spring. I'm going with liquid concepts LLC.
