The BOSS is back

It is a push rod motor. They have different horspower ratings all the way up to 500hp 331.
You can get a DOHC 302 right out of the Ford catalog ready to run. I think they are like 13k though. These motor are from 4600 to 10k.

I wondered whether or not it would be OHV or OHC as well, but when you look at the block, you can clearly see the lifter bores in the galley.

I had to make sure that it was OHV before posting because I would much rather have a 5.0 OHV V-8 than some OHC imposter. I don't know how I feel about resurrecting the 4.00x3.00 302ci V8 in OHC form. It seems kinda wrong.
