Title says it all or can the GTS use the Shelby GT duct system?


Thanks

I don't know, but if you message LBJ he migth have an answer. Or better yet, contact SAI. I would imagine there is one for the GT350 and it should be able to mount on the others too.

There was no option offered me last summer for such kit to be installed, or else I would have gone for it.
I mean, I took about every option possible just cover my bases.

I really don't know.

Just looked and the GT350 comes with front brake cooling ducts. I guess they don't offer it for the GTS, however you should be able to purchase the brake upgrade with cooling ducts. I would give the foks at SPP a call and see what they can do for ya!

Are your front rotors the same size as the GT350?

Isn't your front end fascia the same as the GT350?

Don't know. I guess it depends if you get the upgrade. My Base GTS has 14-inch Baer rotors

Yes.

We don't currently offer a brake cooling kit for the 350 or GTS. Production has a system they install on GT350, but it's not a retail-ready item.

Jer

Jer,
Do any of the Shelby brake duct kits you sell.... their "backing plate" fit 2011 standard GT brake rotors?
Doesn't matter to me if it's from the Shelby GT or older 500's kit.

Thanks
