DBR9 In keeping with GT1 regulations, the AM DBR9 uses the DB9 road car’s bonded-aluminium chassis, but with the addition of a Prodrive-designed steel roll cage.

The race engine has been designed by our engineers and is also built on site. As regulations dictate, it is based on the DB9’s 6-litre V12 aluminium cylinder block and head. All the internals are then purpose-designed for competition use, including a new crank shaft, con rods, pistons, cylinder linings and cam shafts. Even with the standard FIA air restriction, the engine still produces more than 600bhp and more than 700 Nm of torque.

DBS9
Our engineers have tuned the standard 12 cylinder, six litre engine to produce approximately 550bhp.

Wasn't the DBR9s red lining about 7000 rpms?

I also think Jag is correct at 620bhp being the most list as the hp.

Fuel Consumption? Wild Guess here, 1.5 km / Liter or 100 liter tank and runs about 50 min on a tank of fuel ??
