    Great presentation on on coolant radiator change , I have a 2010 Shelby GT 500 SVT convertible 5.4 , I have wasn't sure on how to drain the system with flush and antifreeze to use and to use use a 50-50 mix with distilled water, when I purchased this car, I didn't take in the the account that this is not an ordinary maintenance car, SVT stands for Special Vehicle Team , who made the car , Mr. Carol Shelby

    Good stuff, Tim. 👍 Good preventative maintenance. I agree with the added step of distilled water - good peace of mind to get any remaining crud out.

    I hope to see more videos of this car not just the 2020 Shelby Gt 500 as great it is, I don’t know if I love this car more than your 2020 Shelby GT500, it’s just stunning and beautiful!!! The sound is remarkable! I would drive this 2011 Shelby every day of my life (except not in New York winter/salty roads ) but very poor so just get to live it through your life and videos, truly thank you!!!

What I dont like is, I can buy the new antifreeze but no one who sells it takes the old. So I would need to wait to go to a Household Haz. waste day. Great tutorial thnx! Paul Pstone9500

    QQ... isn't the coolant capacity 5.3gals for the 10-14 GT500? Seems like there is more trapped in the block and you would best be served using a vacuum style coolant extractor to get a full coolant swap. Great video as usual.

    • @ShelbyFlyer
      @ShelbyFlyer  Год назад +1

      Thanks! A little history lesson… if you are referring to my red fender stripes as “Dodge stripes,” those have origins with the AC Shelby Cobra. In the early days of Cobra racing (60s), the cars were all painted alike and it was hard for the pit crews to differentiate which car was coming into the pits. They developed “pit stripes” for the Cobras… different color hash marks to ID the cars. Corvette Grand Sport and Dodge commandeered the stripes. Origins are Shelby though. I added them to my GT500 to tie in with all the red accents.
