Is there anyway to have a dealer installed whipple 550 pedigree'd thru Shelby?  Will they authenticate dealer installed?

Sorry Swede I don't think you know your facts.

YES if you had a FORD dealer install a Whipple 550 or a Kenne Belle you can get your SGT turned into a GT/SR. If you did the Whipple 550 install yourself or some race shop installed it then NO you can not get your SGT turned into a GT/SR

Pedigreed as a S-GT/SR, yes. As a S-GT/SC, no. Correct?

Correct...the way I understand it. Shelby will only accept it on a SGT/SR.

If i want just a s/c and gauges can i get the 10 percent discount. I already have the baer rotors, pads and ss lines. Also is the authenticity just as good at Quantum as at  Vegas.

It's not blasphemy, it's your car! However the Elelbrock superchargers are not part of the program, only Kenne Bell and Whipple. Then if you want the car entered in the registry as a true GT/SC the supercharger HAS to installed by a Shelby mod shop. Then they will put the stripe on. Other than that you can get your own stripe made up and put it on yourself.....

[RogerS]

To clarify, you can have a SGT/SC package installed at SAI or an authorized Mod center.

This will have the "factory supercharged " badging and certificate.

If you choose the SR package,  it will only be completed at SAI in Vegas. Some cinsiderations are made for customers who have installed a "program compatible " supercharger from an authorized FORD dealer.

Roger - Can you elaborate please on the "program compatible" to get your car into the registry "without" the SC being installed at Shelby American? I want  to know if you can have an authentic SGT/SC if you have a dealer install the supercharger. I am told and was under the guise that Shelby American or one of its 2  authorized mod shops had to install the SC in order for it to be in the registry under SGT/SC. Thus having a dealer, qualified to install a supercharger or not, install the sc without being SA mod certifified is not getting your car into the registry. Not knowing is no excuse, just like the law. Hell if I would have known my car could have had the SC installed when it was ordered I would have done it then, but they told me" not knowing' is no excpetion. The car will only be classified as a GT/SC if the car was modified by SA or one if its 2 mod shops in the the USA.
Correct me if I am wrong.

Correct Dave. The SGT/SC converted at SAI or authorized Mod center will have all the documentation associated with the conversion.  There will be no documentation issued for Dealer installed SC's.

Must be the age thing............. When I was younger I usually spouted off without "really" knowing for sure if I was right. Now days though when I "spout" off I am 99 3/4 % sure I know what I am talking about. That extra 3/4 percent of confidence that I know what I am talking about comes from age equaling experience!

I knew you were right from the get go Swede ; just because of the fact that i have a GT/SC and had worked with The Budman and Amy B. regarding the official engine plaque idea , what cars and what Modd shops would qualfy them as an Authorized GT/SC OR GT/SR. That being said, age insite and experience in 99% of most cases equals the correct or right answer.

Thanks Scotty. The GT/SC has always intrigued me. The car, the power and the history are just awesome. Maybe one day I'll have mine done, maybe one day soon too.
