twobjshelbys Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 I'd leave it to Steve to say if it is real GT/SC. But the early cars didn't get the "shelby supercharged" tag in the engine compartment. Mine was one of the very early ones and I had Bud add it when I was visiting Vegas.

Mine was one of the very early ones and I had Bud add it when I was visiting Vegas. I'd have to ditch that blueish "GT" emblem on the steering wheel.

39Mustang Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Where's the hoodscoop? Some things look off on this car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 It has the Shelby GT plate on the radiator support, correct door panel plates and other Shelby items except for the hood scoop which was obviously removed. As far as being a Shelby authorized GT/SC, SAI would need to verify that as mentioned in another post here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 The first S/C available for the SGT was the Kenne Bell. The Ford Racing unit came a little later. Both of mine got KBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the engine photos and description text, I would say no. Now if the seller can produce paperwork that can be verified..........................

SWEDEMAN Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 The first S/C available for the SGT was the Kenne Bell. The Ford Racing unit came a little later. Both of mine got KBs. The first SC available was the Paxton in 2007 this is a 2008 which I know you know but am I not correct? Steve tell us what the first authorized SC was starting in 2007 Shelby GT. Thank you Steve.

twobjshelbys Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) The first SC available was the Paxton in 2007 this is a 2008 which I know you know but am I not correct? Steve tell us what the first authorized SC was starting in 2007 Shelby GT. Thank you Steve. OK, I'll give you that, and I wanted one, but they couldn't get 50 state (meaning they failed California CARB). I think a few maybe less than an a handful of 08's slipped through with Paxtons. Maybe Steve can say about that. For 08 the Kenne Bell was the first offering then Ford got their certification. The interesting thing was that the KB took the original air box from the car and moved it down lower close to the bumper. There was something magical to the feds about that air box and its carbon filter. Edited August 3, 2016 by twobjshelbys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAI-Steven Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Yes there were a few 2008 SGT's with a SAI installed Paxton, the exact number has not yet been determined. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pockdog Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Is the 3-gauge pod on the dash standard for a Shelby GT/SC or is that part of the Northern/Southern California package that Shelby offered? -Pockdog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbytexan Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 The gauge pod is part of the GT/SC package. Steve says he has no records of being a certified GT/SC but you can buy pretty well buy everything that is in the package from Shelby except the GT/SC stripe and underhood tag.
