New ROUSH Performance Catalog Available (About.com)

"When I was a kid I always looked forward to the arrival of the new Sears Catalog. Especially when the holidays were approaching. I'd fill my head with all the things I wanted for Christmas. Then I'd spend the next few months trying to give my folks a hint as to what I wanted under the tree.

"While the Sears Catalog is long gone, it's been replaced by the ROUSH Performance catalog in my house. Think of it as a grown up's guide to Mustang goodies. Speaking of which, the updated 2009 Fall/Winter edition was just released earlier this week.  The catalog includes powertrain upgrades, suspension kits, exhausts, brakes, body packages, wheels, tires, accessories, and service parts for your Mustang. You can download it here."

Jack Roush Jr Blog: The End of the New Beginning (Modified Mustangs & Fords)

"The 2009 KONI Challenge series came to a close earlier this month. We started our new No. 61 ROUSH/Valvoline Mustang team this year under the banner of Horsepower Ranch. With it came plenty of challenges, especially on the side of bizarre mechanical problems: a failed brake line, a loose wheel, failed suspension parts (three separate times), etc.

"However, looking over this season our new team has done very well and I'm proud of what we have accomplished in these ten short months. We've run very well at most every track that we've been to this season. This could not be more clearly seen than in the string of podium finished that we had late in the season: a third place finish that we had at Barber, followed by a second place finish at Trois-Rivieres, followed by a win at Miller. There was also that second place finish in our very first race as a team at Daytona, and another third in the season-finale at VIR, although that was taken away with a 45-second penalty when Billy Johnson, my co-driver, was accused of blocking. It was, in my opinion, unjust, but the officials still slapped us with a penalty and officially we were scored in ninth, though we crossed the line third."

"TRUCKS!" Installs a ROUSH Propane Conversion Kit on SPIKE TV

On an episode of "Trucks!" that appeared on SPIKE TV, hosts Kevin and Ryan take a new Ford F-150 and with the help of ROUSH® Performance, convert it to run on liquid propane. They’ll be using the same clean burning fuel that cooks your hamburgers and hot dogs, but more importantly, costs less. And, they will also show you how and where you can fuel up if you make the switch to LP.

2010 ROUSH Ford Mustang 427R - Specialty File (Car and Driver)

"Subtlety. Some strive for it, while others light their hair on fire and run into traffic screaming. Consider the Roush 427R. At first ogle, it’s nearly indiscernible from a standard-issue Ford Mustang GT, especially finished with black paint and flat-black decals, as was ours. But turn the key and this Mustang does its best impression of one of Jack Roush’s NASCAR sleds. The noise is intoxicating. We were addicted. The throaty, hairy-chested exhaust (a $710 option you can’t afford to skip) changes the entire character of this pony car when you get on the gas, and counterbalancing subtle aesthetic mods to help the Roush strike a balance between hey-look-at-me and I’m-just-an-average-Mustang.

"To be fair, the rest of Roush’s upgrades have a positive effect on the already improved-for-2010 Mustang GT, too, and they all work to improve the car’s characteristics in a balanced, even way. The 4.6-liter V-8 gets new breathing equipment, a supercharger, and a reprogrammed computer that yield 435 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, increases of 120 and 75, respectively, compared to the stock GT. (The 427 in the name is for nostalgic purposes, as the car’s output is now undersold by the decals on its flanks and the V-8 doesn’t displace 427 cubic inches.) A suspension package goes beyond that of Ford’s Track pack and includes new front struts, different rear shocks, and new springs and anti-roll bars at both ends."
