Only 1970 Mustard w/a 290hp 302 was the Boss 302
1970 Ford Mustang
Comments: Both the Boss 302 and 429 continued into 1970. The 428 Cobra Jet continued as the top engine choice for the Mach 1 Mustang. New for 1970 was the 429 Cobra Jet, standard in the Boss 429. The 429 Cobra Jet was rated at 370 bhp while the Super Cobra Jet was rated for 375 bhp. This would be the last year for the Shelby Cobras, which were in fact left over 1969 models with some minor trim changes. A not so great end for a once great performer.

If he is not a car guy, he probably looked it up and saw "Boss 290hp" and thought that was his car :D . Besides even if it IS a Boss it ain't gonna be pushing near that if it is in the condition you are saying.Lenore<br />Red 1996 Camaro 3.8L M5<br />Flowmaster 80 Series, Pro-5.0 ShifterComment

you're probably right. I'm not a mustard guy, but pretty sure that the Boss was a manual car. Maybe the engine has a cam w/.290" lift ??? Although it'd be rare to find an unmodified 302 in a mustard.The bastardification of Third & Fourth gen cars.Comment

i took a closer look at it... its a rebuild. 60 over is all he could tell me because its all he knows. i saw an edlebrock carb and aircleaner though. he keeps handing me excuses to put it off. first it was his alignment now he wants to wait til he gets his flowmasters.
i did a little demo for him in a parking lot and hes changed his attitude somewhat. ill keep trying to get him to do it. he tried to impess me with a launch... didnt do much much for me. im pretty sure i got him1996 PoloGreen Camaro 3.8L T5<br /><br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/506005\" target=\"_blank\">website</a>Comment
