Shelby Raptor Packs 575-HP Supercharged V-8 – 2013 New York

2013 Shelby Ford F 150 SVT Raptor rear three quarters 300x187 imageThe already impressive SVT Raptor is upgraded with a 2.9-liter supercharger, which boosts power of the 6.2-liter V-8 from 411 hp to 575 hp. Helping the force-fed eight-cylinder breathe easier is a Shelby Borla exhaust system, while the stock six-speed automatic transmits its power to all four wheels. Those wheels are shod in 35-inch Goodrich All-Terrain tires, and a custom wheel design is also available. Three graphics packages will be offered, each helping to set the Shelby Raptor apart from lesser, non-supercharged models.

The Shelby Raptor package starts at $17,995 and does not include the cost of the base truck. Each model year, Shelby will build 100 specialty Raptors. Helping to ensure collectability is a documented Shelby CSM number plaque, which is entered into the official Shelby Registry. Shelby is now accepting orders for the supercharged truck, which will join the Shelby Focus ST and 1200-hp Shelby 1000 S/C for the 2013 model-year.
