The video "In Action - The New Shelby GT350 Mustang" we have on the video platform Youtube found and could not hide it from you. Incidentally, this video has been posted on the net: "Ford Performance"

These are the original Shelby dates for the 350er Mustang:

  • PowertrainThe 5.2L V8 engine with a flat-plane crank that produces over 500 horsepower. Bolted to a world-class TREMEC® 3160 6-speed manual transmission and you end up producing more than 400 lb.-ft. of torque.

     

  • Chassis and suspensionThe MagneRide ™ damping system monitors and adjusts itself thousands of times per second for a dynamic, adrenaline-fueled driving experience. But with our obsession for detail, we just couldn't stop there. Our attention to detail drove us all the way down to which way the springs coiled, therefore requiring new lower control arms. This racer was designed, engineered and built so the springs, sway bars and dampers work together as one finely tuned system. We also added new lightweight chassis components and a set of Michelin® Pilot® Super Sport tires wrapped around lightweight, yet incredibly stiff, aluminum wheels. So yeah, the GT350 will deliver a special rush whenever you strap yourself in behind the wheel.

     

  • BrakingThe foundation of any sports car is undoubtedly the brakes; therefore, brakes are a major part of the GT350 magic. So we teamed front and rear Brembo® with cross-drilled, two-piece, highly-engineered brake rotors. The huge 395mm (15.5 ") rotors up front and 376mm (14.8") rotors in the back complete this tight, hard working system that gives GT350 its well-earned track cred.

     

  • AerodynamicsBalancing downforce with aerodynamic drag is always one of the biggest challenges. It's a very hard thing to pull off, but our team of designers and engineers would not 't settle for less. So it's just that the GT350 has aluminum front fenders and a unique aluminum hood. It's also the front and rear fascias, splitter, rockers and rear valances with integrated diffuse all together as a team - each and every one of them. GT350 racer pressed hard to the track.

We hope you enjoy watching and of course keep you up to date when there is something new.
