    is it a real Shelby?

    It's an SVT Mustang with Caroll Shelby's name on it. The only real new Shelby's are the CS-6, GT-H, and then the upcoming Shelby GT. They all have body tags on the interior dash.

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    Man, thank you guys for the insight into this. I contacted Modular Performance, but they replied they will be back monday to answer my question. They're going outta town for either a race or to promote their products. I'll probably go with them since VT seems to be on the expensive side of...

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    darn! idk, i think i will go with the big bore block. of course, i really can't send in my block because the stang is just too fun and i couldn't stand being away from it for more than two weeks. so i will be purchasing their block instead. i'll probably either have a local machine shop install...

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    well, i was talking about the modular 5 liter. the modualr perf. stroker sounds like a good choice too. bringing up your argument is making me rethink some of my decisions. i'll still look into it. but like i said, i was wondering if the 3v head will fit on the 4v 5.0 liter mod motor.

    thanks jberylec. i probably will be living with the speed-o off for a while. but the service manager advice might help too. I'll try that first.

    another 4.10 thread....

    My concern here is this: Do all of you who had 4.10's or any other gear installed, does your engine warning light come on or the message center display a warning message after the gears were installed? It's my only concern for whenever I have these installed.

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    Well, D.S.S. has two options: Send in your completely unassembled short block, or you can have D.S.S. mill you a short block with the stroker kit assembled. Last I checked, it was about $3,700 for sending in your block, and about $5,500 for a CNC milled short block. Of course, a stroked motor...

    4.10's installed-wow!

    Well with all these handheld tuners tuning for higher gearing, do you guys get a warning message or engine trouble light when you use the tuners? That is my only concern for when i take it into get fixed under warranty. Otherwise I'll be to the gears in a heartbeat.

    Gonna get a stroker kit this December!

    Yup. It'll be 302 cubic inches! just like the 'stangs of old. The estimated power from D.S.S. was about 80, and it'll give me a forged bottom end to add a Kenne Bell big bore s/c'er. BTW, I am new here. I look forward to all the tech to be received about this beast we call the S197.
