So what does this new boss 302 have that the 5.0 doesn't engine wise?????

 

forged internals

 

Forged internals, sodium filled exhaust valves, different cams, higher rev-limit, track-key, split/side exhaust, high rise intake.

 

and ported heads and engine oil cooler.

 

I thought the regular 5.0 had forged crank and rods but cast pistons? Hence the reason they hold boost so well.

The BOSS adds the forged pistons and sodium filled valves.

 

exhaust cam have higher lift 13mm
exhaust valves are .8mm larger
heads are mildly ported
different intake manifold
rods are heavier and stronger for 8k rpms
valvetrain is lighter
pistons are forged
intake valves are lighter
piston jets are removed
oil cooler

 

and lions and tigers and bears!!! Oh MY!!
