HP is HP, Boss 429 is suited to whatever contest of HP you want it to compete it in. It’s a closed chamber, opposed valve monster of an engine with more inherent potential than then OE 426 Hemi. The Boss 9 for a bad “drag strip” stigma because Ford handicapped the street motors with intake, cam and carb selection. The Boss 9 is a great drag motor

There's a framed 24x20 print of a red 1969 Boss 429 on my office wall right above my desk. I look at it everyday and it transports my 73 year old mind back to the days of the muscle cars. The Boss was my dream car back then . . . and has been since. It's unlikely (due to cost) that I will ever own one, but in my mind's eye, I envision myself pulling up to a stop light, the driver side window rolled down, my left arm resting on the door. As I look to my left at the driver beside me admiring the Boss, I smile slightly and say . . . "don't you wish you were me?"😎

The two most iconic big block Mustangs ever made. But the regular 428 CJ Mustangs were faster in the 1/4 mile than a stock Boss 429 was. Ford really plugged up that engine from the factory with that little 735 cfm carburetor and really restrictive exhaust system. Plus the street version of the Boss 429 engine was WAAAAAY under-cammed. They should've used the same solid lifter cam in the Boss 429 as they used in the 429 SCJ. Never understood why they didn't and also never understood how a Boss 429 got a smaller 4 barrel carburetor than a Boss 302 did from the factory. Big block race engines don't like little tiny carburetors and plugged up exhaust systems. I understand they were trying to make it more streetable but they took it a little too far.

Do you know what the tests listed as the e.t.and mph of those Cobra Jets? 68 1/2 CJ was 14.01 with 103 mph, the 71 Boss 351 was in the 13's.Different magazines reported different results so I suppose it is subjective.

I like how the 67 looks sleek and elegant even without a front spoiler, it doesn't need it. The 69 is however my favorite. It's got the right proportions and attitude and is more spacious inside. Ultimate shark nose design on the front before it all became a bit too cute for my liking in '70 with two headlights

I couldn't tell for sure. Who won? I do know this, the 1969 Mustang Boss 429s were officially rated at 375 horsepower. That was because Ford was afraid that if they listed the TRUE horsepower, insurance companies and the government would not allow Ford to sell the car. The TRUE horsepower, the actual horsepower varied from 525 horsepower to as much as 565 horsepower and maybe even greater.

As Robert stated on here Boss 429 was not set up for drag racing. But I knew a man I took a 94 Mustang installed the Boss 429 and set it up for drag racing. At the time when he first built it it was the fastest Mustang in the country. The next time I saw him he bumped it up from 850 horsepower to well over a thousand naturally aspirated. And if I remember correctly it went from zero to a hundred in 2.8 seconds. In fact how this came about GM Engineers heard about the car and challenged him and put together the fastest possible car they could and lost. Used to be a video of the race wonder if it's still around?
