So I was hanging out at the track today, Orlando Speedworld Dragway. Just watching, no passes today. And I spotted a new Roush. Earlier last week I had read about a RS3 Phase 3, aluminator block, bigger blower, 675hp. Well this was it. This thing was sick. It had a Michigan plate that said "manufacturer" at the bottom. When I was talking to the guy he said it was a test car and made 585 at the tire. The first pass he made he spun through 1st and 2nd and still nailed a 12.30 on 275 street tires. He said it had too much gear (4.56) because the nose was dropping before he redlined. The second pass was much better, longer burnout and made an 11.80. That thing was nasty.

Yes, the Aluminator is a nasty engine. Race engine. It has all forged internals. It is a post title car. Meaning it does not pass emissions. You can get an Aluminator in a Stage 3 Roush, which is the same as the Coyote 5.0 supercharged at 575 horse and then have the upgrades to 675-700 horse.
Ray Skillman Ford is getting some Aluminators in. They do have one already. I think 2 are custom orders for customers.

No videos unfortunately. It sounded awesome. Nothing special though. Still a very cool car.
