Nothing. It does not apply to Shelbys

It was a code for the Mach 1s and your car was originally built to Mach 1 specifications before being shipped to AO Smith

I'm looking for 9F02M480004. Have you seen it?

So were all Boss 429s.
Past
1968 GT-350
1970 GT-500 #3129 Grabber Orange
Current
1969 Mustang Fastback FOX chassis 5 speed 4 wheel discs Can-Am 494 Kaase heads intake with 1425 cfm Autolite Inline carb Trans-Am style
1970 AMX 5 speed 4 wheel discs
1965 Volvo P1800  CA black and gold plates
1993 Grand Prix LQ-1 3.4 DOHC

Special Ed

boss 429s were Q code deluxe interior fastbacks so no 5 after color code like mach 1s.
