This new Shelby GT 500 Dampener from Innovators West [(785) 825-6166; www.innovatorswest.com] is reported to be much lighter than the original found the '07 models. The '08 Shelby GT 500 will have a revised factory dampener, but Innovators West dampener is 12 pounds lighter than the '07 model, and it offers a 10 percent overdrive that could result in as much as 5 more pounds of boost. It's said to have the lightest possible rotating weight while still maintaining proper dampening. Innovators West's Brad Waddle says, It's super cool. That's all we needed to know.
