5.8L Aluminum GT500 Shortblock 1200 HP Rebuild Kit
Looking to bulletproof your 2013-2014 Shelby GT500 5.8L Aluminum engine?
Team JDM has the answer for you with their 1200 HP rated Shortblock rebuild kit specifically designed for the 2013-2014 GT500 5.8L Aluminum engine block.
The factory engine is capable is very large amounts of power and torque but the Aftermarket has proven it is easy to surpass even these levels making the stock connecting rods and other internals a weak point.
This 5.8 Shelby GT500 engine rebuild kit includes premium quality components for your short block ensuring quality and trouble free performance. Manley heavy duty H beam R series rods with ARP 2000 bolts replace the factory powder cracked I beam units. Calico coated Rod bearings and Main bearings support the rotating components and promote less heat and friction then the OEM parts. The factory cylinder bore spray-in liners in the Aluminum block are very strong but it is a very thin coating which doesn’t allow much room for over boring. Custom Manley forged pistons designed to be used with the factory bore dimensions for a direct drop in application. For engine blocks that have been run already a .001-.002” hone is acceptable for clearance, any more and the block will require sleeves. JDM sourced a Custom package of Total Seal rings help to seal thing up nice and tight to help make Horsepower. These are the same pistons and components used in Team JDM NHRA Cobra Jet Mustangs making 1200+ HP setting World Record’s a 1/4 mile at a time! As with any time you change a piston and rod bob weight, you will need to re balance your crankshaft with our rebuild kit.
