Introducing the 2018 Shelby 1000
The Shelby 1000 is back for 2015 and later Mustang GT. The package begins with the replacement of the stock V8 with a 5.2L supercharged engine that features best-of-the-best internals, a traditional 90-degree crank, modified GT350 cylinder heads and a 4.5L Whipple supercharger. Shelby adds a litany of equipment necessary to make or sustain a thousand ponies, from a new high flow fuel system to an intercooler, transmission, ECU and tuning. Then its craftsmen widen the car’s track with custom bodywork.

On the outside, the Shelby 1000 features an all-new front fascia assembly which includes a grille, cooling ducts and front splitter. It also features an original hood, front fenders, rockers, quarter-panels, rear diffuser, exhaust, and much more.
