Twelve grand!?!?! Whatcha been smokin' Willis!

Don't know how I missed this news! Looks like it was just announced on Friday. Good practice to shop around, parts from FRPP are expensive. Just saw the test in MM & FF's and the Boss has quite a few upgrades from the std GT, most important is the true forged steel rods and stronger bolts.

Is it cool? Yes.

Would I drop 12 grand on one? Hell no. for the same cash I could build a really nice W302 with a super charger kit, and full racing dress. and have enough money left over to go to Longhorns steakhouse for a big ass dinner.

Besides, my dream Boss engine is the 429, but thats 19 grand D:

Im getting one for the B2.

also, anyone else notice it puts out 444 hp and weighs 444lbs? how ironic

Ford is sure proud of that price, but I bet it would be awesome in any vehicle!

I would rather get the regular 5.0 OHC for half the money that puts out about the same power...

I'd say at least 50%.

Yea...that motor is for stupid people, only!!! Just buy a good used one and fix it up and save a whole lot of money like I do.....and it is just plain stupid to spend that much on a motor when you can buy a great used 302 'Stang for so much less and enjoy it.
