Not a leaked photo of the new GT500 motor. It's just a regular GT350 with a Roush supercharger bolted to it. For reference, here is a Roush supercharger on a 2015 mustang GT. Note the same pulley and airbox.

Ah, finally someone here with some sense and not just rumor mongering.

I first thought it was for a VMP setup, but after looking more into it and you can faintly see it on the top of the blower in the "spy photo" if you zoom in a bit. The airbox is the dead giveaway. Probably someone took this photo in a speed shop somewhere and wanted to draw up attention because the rumors fell off the radar.

Others were speculating it could have been possible testing for the new Eaton R2650. But in the SEMA video, Eaton said that supercharger is more meant for the aftermarket and that the R2650 is primarily meant for those who want to make 1000+ horsepower.
