Reply to "Has anyone ever made a "Boss 351" pantera?"

I think an article I read said the Boss 351 was actualy more like 375 horsepower but they published low numbers for insurance idustry. High insurance rates where putting the squeeze on muscle cars too. Anyway if I do decide to make a faux Boss motor I would not use a solid lifter cam. Not when hydraulic rollers are performing so well. And my understanding is that a Cleveland can use them if you mill slots for them in the block and use the right length lifters. I bet the future owner would actually appreciate not having to know what valve lash meant.
Now all I have to do is find some Boss nameplates and I am all set. I will have to fabricate some fascinating story too like maybe how Alexandro did this for his own personal car or something. Wink
