They just revived the 5.0 size in the mod motor for this years cars. F-150's come with a 5.0 now too.

Here is a pic of the new Boss 5.0 4v longblock.
Like I posted before, it's a 7500 rpm (road) racing engine put into a street legal Mustang.

The tell-tale sign that it's a Boss is the oil cooler.
Externally, everything else looks the same as the GT engine.

my mistake. I usually think of the car as opposed to the engine when someone says Boss 302

Since the drag packs got factored into A & AA, it probably won't be long until new engines hit the paper with small changes and more bogus-low hp ratings. It's becoming a big joke. The slow guys that suddenly got fast are going to need something to get back into the lower classes where the water ain't so deep.

Just added for the 2012 302ci an Eaton blower rated at 345hp.
