Roush 427 r convertible - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

At a party last night and talking to this guy who has a ? 09 or 2010 427 r vert. He got it new last year ( spring) said it's faster then a 2011 mustang gt
Or any cadillac ?... He knows I have a 2010 SS ls3
But it never came up me vs him.I did not say much I am not sure how fast
They are. He said he had some intake work done what ever that means.
So what's the skinny on them?

IIRC they are 435 hp and 400 ft-lbs from Roush, with a supercharged 4.6L 3V. So unless he upped the boost a little, I don't think he would be much faster than a 2011 Mustang GT if at all.

Yes, they are badass. I was parked next to one at a car show a few weeks back. They have blowers and should be pretty equal to a gt500. Then again they are about $50,000.

Edit-- Ahh, didnt know they were 4.6 litres.

Around the same performance as a 5.0. It would be a good race if he's stock.

Def not as fast as a GT500, sorry bud....

I got a buddy who has a 09 with a different pulley and cold air and me and him are pretty even. I have a cold air and high flow cats on my ss ls3.

Maybe I can talk him in to giving me a head start.
It a vert and should be heaver then a R 27 coupe.
From what I have read they are low 13 cars.

Black GT · 06-27-2011, 08:37 AM

One guy that races with us has a 07 427R coupe, when the car was still stock he was running 12.6-12.8's with an Auto.

Jason7 · 06-27-2011, 09:07 AM

12.6-12.8 isnt too shabby imo....

skar · 06-28-2011, 09:33 AM

13.1 from below pa 2 and its a cope not a vert.

Ive never seen one do that. Why do mustang people have faster times for their cars? Ive been around a few and.they aint pullin those times all i see is low 13s maybe high 12s. Same as a new ss.

wise · 06-28-2011, 12:45 PM

I would expect the Roush to be a little faster, both cars stock, equal driver.
