    Introduction SVT HISTORY The Ford Special Vehicle Team (SVT) was established in 1991 to “Polish the Ford Oval” by creating low-volume, factory-produced vehicles designed for those select few whose idea of driving is a high-powered, passionate experience — not just a means of getting from point A to point B.

Therefore, the driver must be especially careful to avoid driving through deep or standing water.

  • Page 11: Ground Clearance

    Driving your Shelby GT500 GROUND CLEARANCE Because of low vehicle ground clearance, use caution when approaching curbs/curb stops from the front and rear as vehicle damage will occur.

  • Page 14: Tire Information

    • The Shelby GT500 original equipment tires are optimized for performance in both wet and dry conditions. Ford does not recommend using the original equipment tires when temperatures drop to approximately 40°F (5°C) or below (depending on tire wear and environmental conditions) or in snow/ice conditions.
  • Page 15 Chassis • Always maintain your tire pressures according to the tire information placard on the driver’s door jamb, using an accurate gauge. • Tire pressures are specified “cold” and should be checked after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours. Do not reduce pressure of warm tires.
  • Page 16 Never perform high speed driving with winter tires. Please call the Ford Performance Info Center at 1-800-FORD-SVT (367-3788) for specific winter tire recommendations. Tire rotation Because your vehicle is equipped with unique larger tires on the rear wheels, you can only rotate the tires side to side.
  • Page 17 Chassis • Tire rotation (front tires at the top of the diagram) Sometimes irregular tire wear can be corrected by rotating the tires. Note: If your tires show uneven wear, ask an authorized dealer to check for and correct any wheel misalignment, tire imbalance or mechanical problem involved before tire rotation.

  • Page 18: Roadside Emergencies

    When towing with a flatbed, 4x4 blocks must be used when loading/unloading your vehicle. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor Company has not approved a slingbelt towing procedure. Note: If the vehicle is towed by other means or incorrectly, vehicle damage may occur.
  • Page 19 Roadside Emergencies Transportation Instructions When towing the vehicle, make sure that you use two mini J hooks and attach them to the crossmember oblong holes as shown. Other methods may damage the vehicle. 2011 05+ Mustang (197) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)

  • Page 23: Engine Oil

    ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION Use Motorcraft SAE 5W-50 full synthetic or an equivalent SAE 5W-50 full synthetic oil meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C931-B. Do not use supplemental engine oil additives, cleaners or other engine treatments. They are unnecessary and could lead to engine damage that is not covered by Ford warranty.
  • Page 24 Maintenance When the engine is cold, check the level of the engine coolant in the reservoir. Fill your engine coolant reservoir as outlined in Adding engine coolant in this section. • The coolant should be at the “cold fill range” as listed on the engine coolant reservoir and intercooler coolant reservoir.
  • Page 25 Maintenance Adding coolant When adding coolant, make sure it is a 50/50 mixture of coolant and distilled water. Add the mixture to the coolant reservoir, when the engine is cool, until the appropriate fill level is obtained. WARNING: Do not add coolant when the engine is hot. Steam and scalding liquids released from a hot cooling system can burn you badly.
  • Page 26 Maintenance WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure the engine is cool before unscrewing the coolant pressure relief cap. The cooling system is under pressure; steam and hot liquid can come out forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly. If you must remove the pressure relief cap or radiator cap (depending upon engine application), follow these steps to avoid personal injury: 1.
  • Page 27 Maintenance After any coolant has been added, check the coolant concentration (refer to the Maintenance and Specifications chapter of your Owner’s Guide). If the concentration is not 50/50 (protection to –34°F/–36°C), drain some coolant and adjust the concentration. It may take several drains and additions to obtain a 50/50 coolant concentration.

  • Page 28: Air Filter(S)

    Maintenance AIR FILTER Refer to scheduled maintenance information for the appropriate intervals for changing the air filter element. When changing the air filter element, use only the Motorcraft air filter element listed. Refer to Motorcraft part numbers in this chapter.
