Does it actually have a 427 in it or is it just a name?

Marketing BS............ I sent an e-mail requsting the conversion for my Roush.

As part of the one-year race sponsorship, Shelby Automobiles will market a Las Vegas Motor Speedway Limited Edition Shelby 427 package for the Ford Shelby GT500 Mustang. Owners of 2007 and 2008 Shelby GT500s with the post title Super Snake package on their muscle car can purchase the limited edition “pace car” upgrade on a first-come, first-served basis by emailing shelby427@lvms.com. Shelby enthusiasts may have their names added to a waiting list for the package by emailing shelbywaitinglist@lvms.com. The upgraded package will include Mr. Shelby’s personal autograph as well as many other event-related add-ons. Only 427 of these packages will be available through Shelby Automobiles.

That's lame. I'd never have an engine size number on my car unless it really has that engine. If you put 427, it better damn well have a 427 in it. Same goes for 302, 289, 281, etc...

You can own the silver one! Starting bid is $310,000. What a joke.
