From Hennessey comes an even more powerful Mustang Shelby GT500 called the Venom 1000, but it should not be confused with the Venom 5 hypercar because it is based on the standard Shelby GT500 model which the tuner provided a “healthy dose of extra power” and turned into a real animal.
Given the fact that most will not have the opportunity to drive a car like this, Hennessey has prepared a video showing what the Venom 1000 can actually do.
The Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 leaves the factory with a 5.2-liter V8 engine with a compressor developing 760 hp and 847 Nm of torque, but Hennessey has taken its power to a new level.
As its name suggests, the Venom 1000 delivers a maximum of 1,000 hp and 1,162 Nm of torque. Interestingly, the factory compressor was retained, but the tuner made certain modifications to it, including cooling improvements, and a new intercooler was installed. Also, the fuel supply system has been improved, there is a new air / oil separator, more durable tensioners and anodized fuel supply pipes. The car can also use E85 ethanol as fuel.
At this moment the price for the Hennessey Mustang Shelby GT500 Venom 1000 is unknown,
