Our Version of the GT500 Super Snake |
|
We began working on the Snake upgrade last fall. Not an official one of
course as we are not a certified Shelby Mod Shop. However, close enough to it
for our customer Mel Blizzard and his gorgeous red on black |
|

|
|
|
Again we started with a baseline and it ran true at 518 FWHP. |
|
We began with the exhaust upgrade, this time with JBA long tube headers,
3 inch x-pipe with hi-flow cats and 3 inch cat-back. Sounds great and look at the results. |
|
We then installed the awesome looking Kenne Bell 2.8L blower. Look at
that monstrous dual 75mm throttle body and the massive intake! |
|
And that’s an impressive cold air intake! The new Super Snake hood ducts
all the air from the full width scoop directly into the cold air box. |
|
With the standard 3.25 inch pulley |
|
here’s the unexpected results! Beat our target by nearly 50 HP! |
|
But we didn’t stop there! When we ordered this amazing kit we thought we
might need some additional boost to get the 725HP we wanted so we ordered the
smaller 2 7/8in pulley as an option. Boy were we wrong! But here we were with
this smaller pulley wondering just how much this beast had in it. With the
customer’s approval we installed it, put 101 octane race gas in it and pulled
it again. After the pull we just looked at each other and exclaimed “Holy
Cr*@#p!” And this is on a stock motor! |
|
This unquestionably holds the record for “street” horsepower on our
dyno. And here’s the pictures of the final result! |
