Lone Star Muscle Cars is proud to present this Low Production 302
BOSS mustang. Powered by the all famous 302 Motor� �Ford engineers
combined the Windsor block with the Cleveland heads and ended up
with the Boss 302 engine One significant feature of the 302 was
that the heads were �oversized' relative to the block and much
larger than the competition's heads. The result was a engine that
had impressive power. The stats were impressive for the era: 302
cubic inch �Windsor' small-block V8 with 4-inch bore and 3-inch
stroke Modified �Cleveland' cylinder heads with 2.23 inch intake
valves and 1.71 inch exhaust valves Unique mechanical cam with
�high-lift' design Crankshaft made out of forged steel and balanced
both statically and dynamically Holley 780 cubic feet per minute
carburetor breathing through an aluminum intake. The official stats
for the production 302 were 290 bhp at 5800 rpm and 290 lb-ft at
4300 rpm. Insurance companies were quick to target high-power
engines so it wasn't uncommon for manufacturers to underrate the
engines in their sports cars. The Boss 302 engines installed in the
track versions of the Mustang were accurately listed at 470
horsepower. Suspension � Heavy-duty front coils and rear leaf
springs were installed to make the 302 competition-ready. To
prevent the dreaded wheel-hop that can hamper a car's ability to
get off the line quickly staggered heavy duty rear �Gabriel' shocks
were used. To stiffen the handling a 0.85 inch sway bar was used in
front. Power assist was also added to the front disc / rear drum
setup. Transmission� a close-ratio 4-speed 3.91:1 Traction Lock
Wheels � The wheels are Magnum 500 chromes and featured a silver
center cap. All New rubber� F60x15 bias-ply chosen with the track
in mind. Raised white letters gave the look that we have come to
associate with racing tires. Exhaust The manifolds were designed
specifically for the 302 in the Boss Mustang. Cast-iron manifolds
that fed into a transverse muffler system helped give the Boss its
unique and revered exhaust note. Just a little over 7000 were built
in 1970 here is a prime example of a true Muscle car. On the
Exterior you will see show quality Yellow and Black Paint With The
All Famous Boss Stripe Kit And Shaker Hood. On the inside you will
notice a very nice and correct interior with the four in the floor.
