I'm just curious but is there any reasoning to what is stamped on the cross engine strut bar for our gt350s? Reason I ask is because mine doesn't look like anyone's I've seen in town. I'm curious if this is a specific part to the gt350 or do they just grab randomly from the bin (which is what mine looks like).


I'll post a picture later but all mine says is mustang GT

I don't know if the GT350 gets an actually different bar, but the R is this part number: M-20201-GT350

That's the thicker bar with Ford Performance on it.

You have a non track pack 16 350 which does not include magnaride, strut tower brace, or rear spoiler. If it is a track pack then yea you got screwed.

Interesting...I always thought the 15 and 16 base 350s had that strut bar but in steel rather than aluminum.

OP, is yours steel or aluminum?

I have a 2016 GT350 Base that has neither tech or track pack and I still have a GT350 strut bar.
All 2016's have strut tower brace.
All tech and track packs have Magnaride.

I have a 2016 GT350 Base that has neither tech or track pack and I still have a GT350 strut bar. The original owner of OP's GT350 swapped out the bar for a regular GT. Dick move.

All 2016's have strut tower brace.
All tech and track packs have Magnaride.
Yeah what an asshole

I just saw he made a thread saying he's the original owner. Either they made a mistake at the factory, or somewhere in between the factory and him receiving his car, someone swapped it out hoping no one would notice.
