Here are some details. Superformance MKIII for 57,900. Only 500 miles since finished.


Shelby-Roush aluminum-block/big-block 427FE V8 stroker; delivers approximately 600 horsepower and 600 ft./lbs. of torque
Shelby 504 cid 6-bolt main block
Edelbrock aluminum heads [10.0:1 compression ratio—thrives on 91 octane pump gas]
Blue Thunder aluminum medium-riser 2x4 intake
steel crankshaft—4.375" stroke and 4.280" bore
solid lifter roller tappet 600+ lift camshaft
forged aluminum pistons with "H" (high tensile strength) connecting rods
dual/dueling 600 cfm Holley carburetors with a nitrous setup for an extra 200 hp (Super Snake power)
Shelby aluminum 8 qt. oil pan, valve covers, air cleaner and water pump
MSD all electronic ignition ensemble
ceramic-coated headers
polished SS (stainless steel) surge tank



Smiths Instruments gauges [with correct reverse-winding speedometer]
Lucas toggle switches
Moto-Lita steering wheel
premium German leather
locking glovebox
Cobra mats
Superformance soft top, side windows and tonneau cover


tubular upper & lower control arms
Wilwood brakes—all 4 corners
Bilstein coil-over shocks
trunk-mounted maintenance-free battery with shutoff switch
SS (stainless steel) quick jacks
clear bra in front & clear stone guards in rear
In my humble opinion, I would contact the seller, ask the same questions we all have, have the car inspected and test driven.
It is a nicely equipped vehicle.
