I found these parts in my new to me 2019 GT350. It's the adjustable strut mount kit included with the handling package. I assume that the original owner never had the dealer install it. My question is, should I have it installed? Are they any good, or should I just go with a set of caster camber plates like the ones offered by Shelby American?

My 19 Shelby also has the optional handling package with the Ford adjustable camber plates. I chose to buy Vorshlag adjustable camber plates as I wanted to switch back and forth between track and street and they looked like they were going to be easier for me to do that versus the Ford ones.
I’m sure that the Ford ones will function fine.
Just my two cents.
And the anodized red camber plates look cool under the hood of my Ruby Red Shelby
:crazy:

Should you install them? Only if you want to change your camber. The car does handle a little better with additional negative front camber. You may or may not notice, depending on how you drive your car.

Installing them just to install them but then not changing the camber would be a waste of time and some money.

This 100%. If it's just a street driven car, may as well leave them in the trunk. If you're going to track it seriously you'll probably want more camber than the factory plates will allow you to run.

If you track you need caster/camber plates. The optional Ford units are good peices. I went with Vorschlag because I wanted to adjust myself. Steet driving? no need

Thanks for the input guys, I should have clarified that I intend to do several HPDE events per year, so I will want to be able to add camber. I was more wondering if they were as good as something like the Vorschlag pieces. I will probably just go Vorschlag and keep these with my extra parts. Thanks!

They are as good but are not marked. I sold my Ford units to a friend with a 16
