Yes, Making room for there FRPP Supercharger factory installs in a Future Car. Also to accommodate the Boss 302 engine. They are trying to keep costs down be using the same parts for multiple model cars?

Actually the reason the 07 is slightly different engine wise is for the Shelby version, on the prototype Shelby which was just a Gt with the shelby engine in it they couldnt work the motor with the 05, 06 configuration.

Make sure you get the Stainless Steel Braided Hose Spectre brand, Auto zone has the starter kit, then you will need to buy a couple of extra clamps (Make sure you get Magna Clamps not Covers) they have a built in hose clamp. But it's not hard to do.

Magna Clamp Heater - Oil - Hose Fittings 1/2 (4 for brake vacume hose)
Magna Clamp Radiator Hose Fittings 1 1/4" (2 for rad hose)
