Ford "BOSS 500"

[partsman]

What are the differences, if any of the BOSS 500? Is'nt this still the same base of a late model hemi like the fuel cars have used for the last 40 plus years?

 

[none]

Yes.

NHRA will not let them make very many changes.

Yes, but not because that is a superior design, but because that is all that NHRA will allow.
