Not Ranked
Lowell, I'm not sure I understand the point there? Shelby certainly could do that. Saleen does it to the new ones and with SOME but not TOTAL cooperation from Ford.
I guess Ford wouldn't HAVE to sell Saleen Stangs in their show room, but they do! SOME Ford dealers COULD sell the new "Eleanors" in their showroom, but I think thats rare (if at all).
I understand Ford will NOT let Saleen "purchase" for "re-sale" in THEIR dealerships the Double Over Head Cam with Super Charger SVT edition V-8. Saleen can ONLY use the single OHC. The horse power therefore is about equal, Ford "factory" vs Saleen "modified".
Rumor has it Shelby will be working with Ford on a "modified" new Mustang for sale by FORD. I suspect this will be a "mostly" Ford effort with "input" from Shelby on "how to do it". I DOUBT that SAI will acutally be involved with "hands on" modifications of the new Mustang (when and if that happens)?
I BET it will be equal to anything Saleen has to offer.
