Roush-FFR Project Coupe

Unveiling this morning at the National SEMA car show and the Nov 8, 2003 Factory Five Nationals is the stunning Roush-Factory Five Coupe.  This car was built by the engineers at FFR with performance parts supplied by the crew from Roush Performance.

You may recall that FFR president Dave Smith (along with a crew of FFR engineers and drivers) traveled to Michigan at the end of the summer to participate in the Roush Round-up event (check out the report from that weekend).  At that event, we met and raced with the guys from Roush.  We had previously been working on some racing engine configurations that we could provide to our customers in lieu of using donor engines/parts.

After seeing the Coupe in action, the Roush guys thought it would be a great way to showcase their performance parts that they are currently marketing to hot rod, race car, and custom car builders.

The goal of the Roush/FFR project Coupe is to showcase these Roush performance parts that are so easily installed in a modern replica and to build the Ultimate FFR Type 65.

The Roush parts on the car include the following.  There are many more parts that CAN be used on either FFR Coupes, Roadsters, or Spyders, but these are the parts we selected for this Project Coupe...

  • Roush 402R Monster engine, carbureted 402 cu in rated at an incredible 525 hp, 525 ft/lbs. torque!

  • Alcon/Roush High Performance Brake kit which includes: 14" slotted rotors with beefy Alcon 4-piston calipers front, stainless steel braided lines, 13" rotors out back with 2 piston calipers.

  • Roush Chrome Wheels, 18 x 9 front, and 18 x 10 rear

  • Aluminum billet pedal set

As a result of working with the guys from Roush, we are now offering two engines built specifically for Factory Five customers and specified by our engineers.  The two engines offer Roush performance, huge horsepower, usable torque and a full two year warranty!
