The 2010 Shelby GT500 Super Snake is powered by a 5.4-liter engine topped by a Shelby/Ford Racing Supercharger that ups the power from a factory rated 540 hp to 630 hp. An optional 725 horsepower supercharger upgrade is available. The 725 horsepower package is based on either the Ford Racing/Whipple twin screw unit or the Kenne-Bell 2.8H Twin Screw supercharger and puts the Snake in supercar status based on its performance potential.
2007-2009 Shelby Super Snakes with the Kenne-Bell Supercharger and drag radials can easily run 10 second e.t.'s., we anticipate the 2010 Super Snake has the potential to be quicker.

With the increased air flow required by the supercharger, the 2010 Super Snake also features a cold air intake and high flow Borla cat-back exhaust system.
For suspension updates, Shelby has equipped the 2010 Super Snake with Ford Racing dampers and springs with larger diameter sway bars. An optional Shelby/Eibach adjustable coil over suspension with larger diameter sway bars is also available.
For rolling stock, Shelby fills the Super Snake wheel wells with 20” Shelby Super Snake Signature Alcoa wheels wrapped in Pirelli P-Zero Performance Tires.
Brake upgrades include a Shelby/Baer 6 piston front caliper and slotted Baer front and rear rotors.
As with any Shelby, the 2010 Super Snake includes trademark Shelby styling cues. The most noticeable styling update is the domed hood with front air intake and heat extractors. The OEM quarter windows are covered with trademark Shelby air scoops or block-off inserts.
To make sure everyone knows your rolling legit, every 2010 Shelby GT500 Super Snake has a serialized dash plaque and engine plate. The Super Snake also includes unique badgeing on the front grill and fenders.
The 2010 Super Snake package is priced at $29,495 for the 630 horsepower model. The optional 700+ package is priced at $33,495.
This is a post title package so 2010 GT500 owners that want to convert their GT500 to a Super Snake can either ship the car to Shelby Automotive in Las Vegas or have one of Shelby's mod shops install the package at their facility. Shelby mod shop locations include: Tasca Ford, Quantum Performance and Sean Hyland Motorsport in Ontario Canada.
