what kind of pulley on the new shelby??

[svt2003cobra]

This pulley is wierd, i wonder if it is clutch activated like Mercedes. Or if they made it harder to replace it?

I'm just wondering if that is actually the pulley that's going to come on the car.......

We'll have to wait and see what actally comes on the car... Kinda looks like a clutch style though...May limit the boost to come on only at 3000+rpm...

I'll show ya's firsthand. According to my wife, MYSTIC MAMA, there will be one in HER garage.....

I read somewhere it might not even have the Whipple.....it might just be another Eaton

It's only a concept, right? So some of what we see won't even make it to the final product, or will be changed.

Those were my thoughts on the pulley, too.

I Talked to SVT on the phone today. The supercharger has not been finalized as to which brand of blower will end up on the production car.

I'm counting more than 8 ribs on the belt, and the digital 15lb boost guage has me wondering.

Perhaps they engineered it so that a pulley swap would be very difficult to stop all the people who blow their engine and claim warranty work.

I believe you are right. :rolling: They are going to offer a very powerful car and know people are going to try and mod it like the '03/'04 and don't want to go through all the trouble off warranty claims that cost lots of money.

But that didn't stop us from getting the pressed fit ones (as opposed to simply keyed and bolted) off of the '03 and '04s, did it, hee hee! ;-)

Well, this one almost looks like the pulley and the snout are one. So that a pulley swap would entail taking a lot more off than just the pulley. If that's true that was probably pretty smart of Ford.

I will be happy with 520hp, and that will only take intake and exhaust, but this time I'm going for the loud exhaust!

That's a 10 rib pulley...just like the setup on the Ford GT. NO SLIP!!!
