The Boss is Back!

After a 40-year break, the legendary Boss 302 is back in action. This intimidator on wheels was literally born on the racetrack, and today proudly returns with some serious performance upgrades. IN 1968 the Ford brass let the Mustang team run wild and produce one of the hottest production muscle machines ever. In 2012, they’re looking to bring back the thunder....




Ford's powertrain team started with GT's 5.0L as a baseline, then injected some major modifications so the Boss 302 could withstand all-day thrashing up to its 7,500 rpm redline.

Improvements abound, including forced-aluminum pistons, upgraded connecting rods, revised oil pan baffling, and a whole lot more. Even without a supercharger, the Boss delivers 444 horsepower and 380 lb.-ft of torque.

With the Boss 302 Ford didn’t skimp on anything, from performance enhancements to stylish touches. Among the details, Ford points highlights:

• Brembo™ front brakes
  • Front lower fascia with new splitter
  • Unique Boss 302 Livery – hood and side reverse “C” stripes with logo, and roof painted to match stripe color and black decklid spoiler
  • Production number on engine manifold
  

The Boss is making one Canadian auto show appearance... Calgary - March 9-13.

See you there.
