its a well known fact that the boss 429 mustangs were built to homologate that motor for nascar,even tho they didnt race the mustang in nascar! they were shoe horned into the 69-70 mustangs and with a tiny little 735 cfm holley,tiny hyd cam,cast zorst manifolds(restrictive as ****)they still managed a high 13,low 14 sec 1/4 time from the factory!
They even had a rev limiter in em...... carcraft and hotrod magazine tested one with a set of headers,850cfm holley and with no rev limit and they were running low 12's with ease,and thats in the 70's,when they were new! The boss 429 is a whole different thing to a 460....
