    Roush Parnelli Jones Edition

    Roush 96-98 S281 specs

    Those are the official #'s straight from the Saleen book. All they basically did was wires, airfilter, and a catback, so +5hp is about right. In 98, they just used Ford's 225hp figure, with no addition.

    Roush Car show tech?

    I've done hundreds of shows and never had anything tampered with. Now, I wouldn't leave $100 bills laying on my chair and walk away... but I often have cleaning supplies, photo albums, chairs, etc around, and no one has ever messed with any of it. Convertible top down, all windows down, hood...
