  This one has a 383. The 1969 GTS came standard with the 340. The 383 weighs 620 lbs while the 340 weighs 525. Just a note - the 440 weighs 670 lbs.

 The first 2074 (+/-) 1969 Shelby GT Mustangs had E70x15 Large RWL tires (used on the 1968 models). Ford switched to the Boss 302 heavy duty front spindles and bearings which Ford deemed, for safety purposes, necessary to be able to handle the extra stress F60x15 RWL Polyglas tires would place on the front suspension. A total of 3294 1969 Shelby GTs were made of which 789 were remade into 1970 models. That means only 431 1969 Shelby GTs were made with F60x15 Polyglas GT RWL tires. Yet when you see 1969 Shelby GT Mustangs they almost always have the F60x15 tires.  All of the 1970 Shelby GTs would have the F60x15 Polyglas GT RWL tires as they are all later build leftover 1969s which had the Boss 302 spindles and bearings

 The difference between a 1969 and 1970 Shelby GT door mounted data plate. 1969 is on the left, 1970 on the right. Notice there is no build date on the 1970.

 Beginning with the 1969 Firebird Trans Am, Power Steering was standard. One of the very few muscle cars to have this option as a standard feature.

 NHRA Top Fuel dragster or Funny Car, the statistics alone are mind-boggling: 11,000 horsepower, zero to 100 mph in well under one second, and for us, the most fascinating spec of all: At peak torque, the engine consumes one gallon of fuel every three-quarters of a second. That’s more than a jumbo jet airliner.
