The FRPP Boss 302R is the race only car that's out now. The street version, Boss 302 with no R should be a little quicker than the GT (no idea if the cool intake manifold on the 302R will make it's way on the 302) but it should be more about handling. The Boss 302 was never about drag racing but racing with turns. So it should be a better handling GT with a decal package mainly.

So the street BOSS should look something like this. If I read that post correctly.

It makes me concerned that that was the main issue I had with that video.

Thats funny, I didn't think a intake manifold could limit rpm. I always thought it was silly things like the valve train or rods. Now a intake manifold could restrict power up top and make it pointless to rev higher. But it is not (unless there is insufficient power to turn the engine faster) a determining factor in how high you can rev the engine.

Wasn't there issues with Ford continuing to use the Shelby name? Maybe the Boss will replace the Shelby. So selling a car called the GT500 without the Shelby in front looses its panache and they use the BOSS name instead.

Thats actually not the point. I went out of my way to correct what you said, because some newbie to cars/engines might misunderstand if he were to read your post. I simply do not like misinformation.
