Audio5.8L V8/ 662HP/ 631 LB FT of Torque First unveiled at the Los
Angeles Auto Show in November 2011, the Ford Shelby GT500 was the
most powerful Mustang at the time. The DOHC 4 valves per cylinder
5,812 cc (5.8 L; 354.7 cu in) supercharged and intercooled V8
engine is certified to produce 662 bhp at 6,500 rpm and 631 lb�ft
of torque at 4,000 rpm with a claimed top speed of 202 mph. The
convertible had a limited top speed of 155 miles per hour. The 2013
models had various improvements and differences compared to the
GT500 of 2012 including new front end sheet metal along with
standard HID headlamps, along with a new LED tail light assembly.
The new 2013 Shelby GT500 also had no grill, due to the massive
amount of cooling required for the vehicle. Performance changes
included twin fuel pumps (a Mustang GT's single supply pump, twice
over), larger fuel injectors, a grippier and larger-diameter
clutch, a larger fan, a three-row intercooler (the previous car
used a double-row unit), a beefed-up Tremec TR-6060 six-speed
manual transmission with an internal oil pump, and a single-piece
carbon-fiber driveshaft. Larger Brembo front disc brakes with
six-piston calipers, reinforced axle tubes, and aero tweaks to help
the car reach 200 mph + safely. According to Ford, the changes have
resulted in a 14-percent reduction in drag and a 66-percent
increase in front-end downforce. Also new for 2013 was a larger
front anti-roll bar and retuned springs. An rpm-adjustable
electronic launch-control function was standard, as was a four-mode
electronic stability control system.
