SGT-C0056 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I think I'm going to leave it on the driver side strut tower for now. If everyone decides to put it on the radiator support I'll reluctantly move it. And to answer the question about keeping the engine bay clean. It's too COOL under there not to keep it clean, but it's a lot of work. I spend at least an hour cleaning under the hood every time I drive it. Dont Move it!! it looks great where it's at. I WANT A SC NOW...A KB set-up looks nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budman340 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi all!!!!! I just took some pics of the ones we just installed here. Now, you CAN install yours where you like--its your car I was suggesting to put it on the drivers strut tower brace, but if you have the stock cold air intake, the box will cover up the spot. So, the first pics I showed, it was where Roger's went on. The ground wire was moved, but not enough. This caused the plate to be partially covered. In this set of pics, we moved the ground wire to another place and now the plate fits fine. This is where we mounted them. If you all want to do the same, that's fine. If you want to place them somewhere else, that is fine too. It ALL goes into the registry the same Thanks!!!! Bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stngfever Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Why is it that all cars touched by SAI have or can get a COA except the ones that started all this (SGT)? Is it really that difficult to take the COA's being used and change some of the wording for the SGT's? Even now with the "6" packages just announced, the literature seems to place emphasis on Authenticating these with a COA! We keep being told to wait for the registry, then authenticity program, why is this such a difficult task? If the SGT's have to wait for these never ending dates for this simple piece of documentation, why aren't all the SAI built cars waiting as well? Totally frustrated and confused!

RogerS Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 We have answered all of our members questions on a number of occasions in several forum threads. There is no reason to go into the detail again. As you can see we have been somewhat busy with several different projects for our owner and enthusiast base. We have explained the process of obtaining information from our partners and the complexity of documentation and cross referencing and data base management. We will not put out a product at anyone's request just for the sake of putting out the product. We have explained why it is not a simple task. You have all the answers we can give. When it's ready the information will be posted here. No other information until then. If anyone would like to conact me to discuss the simplicity of this project or offer suggestions on how we can move this project along more quickly, I would be happy to listen to your suggestions.

ShelbyPilot Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Well I finally got mine on today. However, I ran into a problem with the passenger side radiator support. I couldn't believe I missed this but nobody had posted about installing a plate on a Paxton Shelby GT/SC. I reread the thread twice. It turns out that on the Paxton install a bracket mounts to the radiator support to relocate the power steering fluid. So the passenger side radiator support doesn't work for us Paxton guys. I went the passenger side strut tower location. About an inch down from the seam. Just low enough to cover the now unused mounting holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARALD KELLEY Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Shelby Pilot, I like the location and spoke to Bud about the issue. He will check this thread out. I think this will be where they will mount mine as I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT/SC#0471 Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 So I have had my plate for awhile and decided today was the day to install it. So I turned on some Black Sabbath on Pandora radio and hit it. I think I have found a cleaner way to do the grounding wire installation that looks pretty good IMO. First I looked at it for a long time and listened to tunes, after undoing the ground wires I did not dig on the way they looked, so I removed the radiator top black plastic cover as all the wirs would reach a spot I could eyeball with the cover on... In the above pic I alraedy have drilled a new hole for the ground wires. Bolted up with nylock large cad plated washer and clean terminals with a dab of Blue loctite: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
