We've been advised that it will be about $3k difference in price and the power levels have been revised down to the same as the iron block at 535HP. I will say the engines we have installed so far seem like they are being conservative on the power levels. Realistically you probably will see 550ish at the crank for these.
We have a test mule / inventory car now that I am extremely happy with. And several more of these engines sold and on order. There have been some delays in getting them, but the wait has been worth it so far.
Some pictures (we did it up with a Turkey Pan we cross developed with Master Touch and a Kirkham Billet Tank):
In Roush land they have a new offering called the 427SRX that is supposed to bridge the gap in price difference between the 402R and the 427R. I have not ordered or installed one. There are some changes going on at Roush that I hope will bring us more options and better values.
