As with most motors, eventually people start to transplant them into other cars. What would most likely be a common transplant (ie body shell) for the Boss motors? I'd like to try a blown boss in an XA coupe if I could.

I'd love to put a boss into an EA. I just love the thought of havin a hell quick v8 EA.

It'd be interesting to see what panel mods would be needed (if any) to fit one under the bonnet of an EA.

how about making the car wider :)
BOSS engine won't fit into much without a fair few mods.

The XA coupe would go, and sound better with a blown 351/460

There was a 1994 Mustang engine in the trading post for cheap, I was jumping until I found it was a 5.0 Windsor, not a 4.6 mod. It would of gone into an XB nicely I reckon.

Or how about a stroked 4.6L alloy block stang motor with a kenny bell pushing 25psi. Odh did i forget to mention its 327ci.

an XY with a BOSS 290 would be the one id go, or a put a 4.6L all alloy in a TE cortina

or the ultimate i reckon would be a blown 5.4L in a shelby kit car, could you imagine the power to weight of that thing!
