Boss Project Reply #1 – July 17, 2006, 01:09:14 AM Are you even able to get that engine? They're highly sought after and quite rare. The only thing I can tell you is that parts for 'em are really expensive. Physically, I think the engine should fit in fine, with some modification to the motor mounts. Not sure if you'll have to modify anything to make the tranny fit.Here is an example of what I mean. Quote Selected

Boss Project Reply #4 – July 17, 2006, 10:16:49 AM Without pictures of you and todays newspaper with this Boss 302, I ain't believing it(but then you have supposidly have this Crown Vic with a HO that Ford never built)...REAL Boss 302s have huge valves and 351 Cleveland type heads, low end torque sucks and thats with a four speed and 3.91 gears(I have two freinds with them). In a Bird with a automatic, 3.8s would outrun you to 40 mph... They are super engines but the operating range is 3500-7500+ RPM Quote Selected

If you have an engine from a "70's mustang" it's not a BOSS 302 but just a regular 302. Quote Selected

Boss Project Reply #8 – July 17, 2006, 06:39:56 PM My dad sold his 69 BOSS 302 when we moved up here. He kept the motor to one day make a boss close. For the record I know the Vic' doesn't have a HO but it has HO parts from the last owner. If you want i'll take a picture of me sitting on the BOSS and a picture of the block casting. PS. I'm tired and ranting, I'm sorry Quote Selected
