Steve: Possibly. But I think there is so much bad blood between the two its unlikely. I think or would guess actually that Price wants the AC badge and fixtures for SPF and to link the two together to compete with Shelby on equal footing. It certainly gives panache' to SPF. Giving AC rollers to Shelby would defeat his original goal and possibly even be counter productive to SPF since SAI would now have all the cards so to speak and this would add even more panache' to the lower priced CSXs from SA resulting in a smaller market share for SPF.

Even if Price were to agree to sell AC rollers to ol' Shel the cost would be prohibitive and the wait too long especially if they are gonna build them like they used to.

If I were a betting man (and I'm not) my money would'nt be on seeing an AC roller program for SAI.

Time will tell.
