Damn intereting, you sure have my attention!

What does the "Boss 335" mean on the compressor? Is the a Boss Coyote that is stroked to get 335ci?

Downunder

Boss 335 signify,s that the engine has 335kw or 449.24HP

The best one was the 351 Cleveland in the 1971 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase III, It was the fastest 4-door sedan in the world in its day....

Cool stuff man.

Ah! Thanks for the info!
Makes perfect sense since Australia is an SI (metric) country.

449.24 crank BHP? I am impressed, I was under the impression that the Boss Coyote was going to make 9 less crank HP.
I am guessing that in the US, the estimated 440 crank BHP is calculated as such because of emissions controls and an emissions friendly tune is required, while still meeting the US EPA's CAFE regulations.

Also, it could be a result of octane count and if you all have premium fuels sold at the pump with higher octane counts than the US' 93 octane.
Mind if I ask what the highest octane pump fuel you can get in Australia?

Downunder

We have 91 95 98octane fuels over hear...
