The one thing that has puzzled me about the 351C is the HP that Ford advertised. Around 380 hp for the boss 351C, if my memory is right. This being gross not SAE net like today.

So with a radical cam that came in this engine and a set of heads that is claimed to breath too well for the street, why not more HP?

Exhaust manifold have it all choked up?

I do think that if the Boss 351C had been available at the same price and time as a 428 FE, the 427 Cobra would have never been.
