Re: Boss 9 in 71

Interesting...especially the specs on width. Does that include the exhaust manifolds?

As far as the 429 in the 67-70 Mustang, it fits right in with the swap mounts available from the aftermarket, or with Boss 429 mounts (which are still available from Ford, BTW). It doesn't require moving the engine forward. Ford had the correct pan for the installation on it's parts shelf... the Boss Nine pan. Today, you could simply use another part from Ford's parts shelves...the F250 pan, which is rear sump. However, I'm pretty sure that the stock 429 pan works without modification. Jeff will know for sure, as he has a '67 with a 429 in it.
