Despite the fact that Shelby was based on the Mustang GT, much of the car’s suspension, design, aero package, and engine were new. The most significant single difference was the fantastic Voodoo engine, which has a 5.2-liter displacement, 526 HP, and 429 lb-ft of torque. The main feature of this high-revving powerplant is the flat plane crank technology, which allows the big V8 to scream to almost 9000 rpm. It is much closer to the Porsche GT3 in terms of precision driving and cornering speeds than it is to the humble Mustangs of yesterday.
