Shelby Coolant Reservoir Install

Where did you get that one? Did you mask off the Shelby logo? Looks great.

Expensive, but quality construction and finish.

Well shit. I inquired months ago, they should make a black one since they did an F-150 version, replied back, we’ll look into it, never heard from them again. So I had one powder coated black without the logo and now here we are. ‍

Very nice. Might have to look into one in the future....

Just Finished with Shelby Coolant Reservoir Project, (Powder Coated (Black) & Lettered with Brushed Alum. Vinyl)
All the custom GT350 lettering I do myself, (PM me if interested in any Under-The-Hood Graphics)

Installed this one. In the unlikely event there was overflow, I ran the tube down through hole I drilled in belly pan. After tie wrapping it all up, superglued the hose to the belly pan and then cut it off.

Only thing I do not like is that the cap does not line up at full lock.

As mentioned, I did not like the way the cap did not line up at full lock. So bought an extra OEM cap, sanded it up a bit, gave it two coats of adhesion promoter, then hit it with Rustolem Truck Bed Liner to match the rough texture of the tank. Also had to shorten the hose connected to front of tank to get it to lie down in channel like OEM. Now done under hood. Just wanted to clean it up some.

Just installed brushed aluminum vinyl Shelby letters on mine. Thanks to @JohnVallo for this simple mod.

I like the fuse box lid and decal, where did you get it?

Picked it up last Fall when JLT was still painting parts. It’s a shame they stopped because they did a hell of a job. That decal has clear coat over it

Bummer, I would have loved to get one for my car. Thanks for the information.

I have purchased from RPI for my last car. I just checked both sites, neither offer Ford Performance Blue

If I decide to look into these I will perhaps give them a jingle. Thanks again

I conversed with RPI regarding 2020 colors. Their response was that they didn’t think they would have the new colors until spring next year. When I asked if it was due to availability of the paint or concern that the parts may change from 2019 to 2020. They responded it was the latter.
Once we can confirm that the covers are the same (or the new one’s are available), they will make them.

It's weird though, Ford Performance Blue is not a new color. Anyway, I will check with them when the time comes, thanks!

RPI has performance blue. I have the painted coil covers in it.
