Executives with Shelby Automobiles have finalized the content of their Super Snake post-title package. Earlier this year, Shelby Automobiles and Ford Racing unveiled a package to transform a limited number of 2007 and 2008 Ford Shelby GT500s into fire breathing “Super Snake” coupes and convertibles for US$27,995.00 at 600HP and approximately $31,995.00 for the 725HP version coupes.

“At Shelby Autos, we believe that life needs more,” said Amy Boylan, President of Shelby Automobiles. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with the best in the business to offer a Ford Shelby GT500 with even more punch. Working together, we’ve developed one mean pony car that puts out more power and balanced performance than any other American production car on the road.”

The Super Snake post-title package will include enhancements to the Ford Shelby GT500’s handling, styling and power. The main 600 horsepower package includes a Ford Racing supercharger with a warranty and components developed exclusively for the car with Shelby’s partner, Ford Racing. The package can be applied to either a coupe or convertible with Borla exhaust, 20” Alcoa made forged aluminum wheels and a host of styling components for the rambunctious Shelby.

“We’re always looking around the corner for new ways to deliver balanced performance that’s unlike anything else on the road,” said Jamie Allison, Manager of Ford Racing Performance Group. “The GT500 Super Snake package, with its higher horsepower levels and balanced track-inspired tuning, satisfies those demands and then some … in a uniquely Ford – Shelby way.”

For those who feel they need even more power but are not concerned about a warranty, Shelby worked with Kenne Bell to develop a 725 horsepower program, which is available without a warranty, for the Super Snake coupes. The Shelby / Kenne Bell package is matched to a JBA exhaust and a custom drive shaft to handle the additional power. An adjustable Eibach suspension package is available for an extra cost.


“Carroll Shelby is always telling our team that life needs more,” said Amy Boylan, President of Shelby Automobiles. “That’s why we’ve teamed up with leading companies like Kenne Bell to leverage their expertise and develop exclusive parts for our post title packages. Working with our performance-driven partners, we’re going to deliver one of the most exciting cars in the world.”

For coupes only, an optional Shelby / Kenne Bell 725 horsepower supercharger (unwarranted) will be available featuring special Shelby badges including an engraved Shelby Super Snake emblem, Shelby plate on the throttle body and anodized aluminum plate with engraved Shelby logo that is machined and set in the manifold. The Shelby / Kenne Bell package is matched to a JBA exhaust.

“We’ve been working with Amy Boylan, Gary Patterson and their team to develop an optional high performance supercharger kit for the Super Snake package,” noted Kenne Bell Company CEO Jim Bell. “Ford engineers built a phenomenal engine for the Shelby Mustang GT500, so it’s exciting to have the opportunity to take this amazing machine to the next level. The optional Super Snake package we developed, showcasing over 725 horsepower, will include an upgraded drive shaft, a billet twin 75mm throttle body and boast one of the most powerful superchargers on the market.”

While the Super Snake package will be available exclusively through Shelby Automobiles, many of the products comprising the Super Snake package will be available exclusively from Shelby Performance Parts and at authorized Mod centers.
