The Boss also has forged internals as well and a different intake design.
See below...
But we are talking about the computer limit.... Doesn't matter about intake or internals..

The possiblities open up huge on the NA combo's if we can rev them to 8000 and still have time to shift them. Im getting excited just thinking about the NA combo's xD

:highfive:

But the paint scheme is a NIGHTMARE :dead2:

Agreed, I give it a pass because of the cars history.


Why does this look so much better though?

Why oh why don't they come in Grabber Orange?


Haha I agree woulda been cool for them to offer them in just the grabber colors or just the orignal boss 302 colors, only 4 I believe, wimbledon white, calpyso coral, acapulco blue and bright yellow.

$8-9k for this motor + the adapter pieces ain't bad. very curious to see someone do it and come back with tangible results

Other than the calypso coral, I much prefer the grabber colors of '70.

Grabber orange will always be my favorite. Calypso Coral is almost a Comp orange. It tends to look more red in pictures, but in person it's pretty dark orange.
