tuningblog.eu Your magazine about tuning the car
Hard to believe, but Carroll Shelby was born 100 years ago (January 11, 1923) in Leesburg, Texas. And exactly a century later, the British luxury and performance car dealer Clive Sutton celebrates the icon with the 775 hp pickup, which of course bears the name of the late entrepreneur, in England. Clive Sutton has been importing Shelby American vehicles into England for around 15 years and is also the only official dealer of Shelby American vehicles in the UK. And if you want to treat yourself to a Shelby pickup truck with 775 hp provided by a supercharged V8 engine in England, you should hurry up. Because really many vehicles are not available. The 775 hp version of the Super Snake Sport is based on the Ford F-150 XLT 4×4 and has a 5,0 liter Coyote V8 under the hood.
Shelby Great snake Sport
The engine is supplemented with a High performance air intake and High-flow sports air filter, there's an oversized carbon air intake tube, a billetthrottle, a high-performance aluminumHeat-exchanger, high-flowInjectors and a Borla performanceSports exhaust system with polished tailpipes. For this purpose, the chassis is fully adjustable coilover and shocks by Ridetech/Fox. Next there are new upper Wishbone, modified rear tie rods and a different rear Stabilisator. As for the exterior, of course, the new hood, grille and front bumper cover with air-controlled intake ports cannot be overlooked.
22 inch rims with off-road tires
There are also four-piece floor covers (for the street version) and of course the typical Shelby is visually striking front splitter. 22-inch aluminum rims also rotate in the wheel arches, and there are massive ones all around fender flares and vents in the front fenders and Le Mans-style stripes across the vehicle can be seen. There are also black stripes on blue paint and for the sport with a single cab there are gray stripes on black paint. With regard to the off-road changes (Off-road version) is in the Shelby Great snake a BDSLift Kit installed, which is combined with accessories supplied by Fox. The 22-inch models mentioned are 35-inch Off-road tires obtained from BFGoodrich.
also the cabin has changed
And, of course, the interior is unmistakably Shelby, too. High quality billet racingpedals, there are embroidered headrests and a Super Snake emblem on the center console lid. Various carbon trim parts, a two-tone leather interior, a consecutively numbered plaque on the dashboard and another in the engine compartment complete the changes.
