Default So what did Elanor have besides Hollywood enhancing the sound??
Anybody have any insight as to what that Shelby GT500 had to make it sound so sweet?

A very lumpy cam, a BB ford, and true duals. Id guess they used flowmaster mufflers.

I was just checking that actual car from the movie gone in 60 seconds out in person. It is in the car museum in Las Vegas. It is also for sale.

Would that museum have been in the imperial palace motel?
