This 3 Stages represent the “classic” Roush Production. The Stage 1 had only the bodikit, the badges and the emblems; The Stage 2 moves a little bit up, adding the complete performance handling set; The stage 3 adds a really nice roushcharger under the hood.
427R
The number 427 has been intertwined in the Ford product line for many years, both as a car model and one of the most powerful and legendary engines in their line. It is only natural that ROUSH, as perhaps the best Ford engine builder in the country, is the company to reintroduce the number to the automotive lexicon using modern engine technology.
Based on the acclaimed ROUSH Stage 3 Mustang, this version is slightly less in content but includes 100 percent of the fun factor. The 427R horsepower package is highlighted by the intercooled ROUSHcharger* system which adds 135 horsepower and 65 lb-ft of torque to the base Ford 4.6L, 3-valve V8 powertrain system. The additional power upgrade comes via a ROUSH-engineered ECM calibration which has been specially-tuned to work in harmony with the different exhaust system used on the vehicle. The resulting total power rating for this vehicle is 435hp and 400 lb-ft of torque.
Further adding to the style and performance of the 2008 ROUSH 427R is a four-piece aerobody kit which includes a stylized front fascia, front chin spoiler, hood scoop and rear wing and ROUSH 18-inch cast chrome wheels with high-performance tires and the special 427R striping kit.
Just 122 unit produced(108 coupè and 14 convertibles).
429 R
The ROUSH® 429R™ is the final version in the line of Ford tribute cars, and what a version it is. A polished ROUSHcharger™ glistens under the hood, yet provides 435 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque.

“We are continuing to honor and celebrate the heritage of the proudest models of Ford racing history – the 427, 428 and 429 (engines),” stated Jack Roush. “These are iconic numbers in the Ford world and it is an honor to put them onto ROUSH Mustangs and insert them back into the muscle car world.”
P-51B™

This aeronautical themed Mustang will be limited to just 51 serialized units, each with 510 horsepower and 510 lb.-ft. of torque.
