  Ford Boss 351 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ford Boss 351 is a modifed 351 in³ 335 "Cleveland" V8.
The forged connecting rods were shot-peened and magnafluxed for strength, and forged domed pistons gave a 11.7:1 (11.1:1 advertised) compression ratio.
Engine displacement: 351 in³ (5.8 L) Bore and stroke: 4.00 in (101.6 mm) by 3.5 in (88.9 mm)

 Ford 335 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 335 was designed as a mid-sized engine to replace the larger members of the Windsor small-block family as well as the mid-sized FE V8 family.
To replace the 390, Ford took the 400 engine's tall-deck block and de-stroked it, with a shorter throw crankshaft and taller pistons, to produce a 351 cubic inch (5.8 L) engine whose components were largely compatible with the 400.
Ford decided to simply scrap the M-block engines and replace them with updated 351 Windsor engines at the small end, and a combination of the 6.9 L Navistar diesel and the 460 at the top end.

 Ford Windsor engine and its various forms
The last 5.0 L engine was produced at Cleveland Engine Plant #1 in December 2000, as part of a build ahead to supply Ford of Australia.
Though the engine family is the same as the 289 and 302, and employs the same bell housing and head interchange as well as a few other small parts, the block itself is different.
The Ford Boss 302 engine was a performance variant of the Windsor, putting Cleveland heads on the Windsor block to improve "breathing".

 The Ford 302 Engine Specs
The new Ford 302 would be ideal for Trans-Am racing since it was under the 305 cid limit of class limit, but the hi-po heads would be too restrictive on the longer stroke of the 302 block.
While the Boss 302 was normally considered a 302 with 351 Cleveland heads, these canted-valve heads were used first on the Boss before the rest of the Cleveland was developed.
The Boss 302 and 351C-4V head casting were the same except for a minor difference in water passages.

 Ford 335 small block V8 engine
The Ford 400 engine had "square" proportions, with a 4.0 in (102 mm) bore and stroke; it therefore displaced 402 in³ (6.6 L), making it the largest small-block V8 ever made.
Later, it would power the Ford Thunderbird, the Lincoln Continental, and Mark V. The 400 uses the same bellhousing bolt pattern as the 385 family big-block to make it compatible with the higher torque-capacity C6 transmission used on the large cars and trucks.
To replace the 390, Ford took the 400 engine's tall-deck block and de-stroked it, with a shorter throw crankshaft and longer connecting rods, to produce a 351 cubic inch (5.8 L) engine whose components were largely compatible with the 400.

 The BOSS 302 Story
The Ford BOSS 302 Mustang, built for model years 1969 and 1970, is named for its engine.
Ford was in the process of developing a new 351 cubic inch engine known as the "Cleveland" for 1970.
It was Larry Shinoda, a former GM stylist, now working at Ford who created the car's unique styling and came up with the name BOSS 302 for the car and engine that would go into production so Ford could race it in 1969 and 1970.

 Collectible Ford Mustang Boss 302
But the most appropriate title for the '69 and '70 Ford Mustang Boss 302 is "Race Car," since that was the acknowledged purpose Ford had in mind for the machine.
The Boss 302 was a performance "image" machine that made a visual statement about its owner.
High performance Fords were produced for another year but the end of that Golden Era was at hand, not to be revived for a couple of decades.

 Ford Mustang BOSS 302 Die Cast Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
Based on the success of Ford’s factory-backed SCCA/Trans-Am Mustang race teams, the BOSS 302 combined high-revving engine performance with a “competition-type” suspension, resulting in one of the hottest production cars of all time.
The 1970 BOSS 302 was the culmination of this Ford concept.
The 1970 BOSS 302 package started with a cant-valved, four-bolt main block 302 cubic inch V-8 engine with solid-lifter cam and forged steel crank.

The only difference in the blocks is the boss had 4 bolt mains, but with the later blocks you can run roller cams or what ever you want.
While it may be true that you have some experience with boss 302s, something tells me that if you were the worlds leading authority on these motors, you wouldn't be so quick to declare it.
As for a 302, yes it is. It has 289 HiPo rods, not 302 rods, due to the comp height on the pistons, the heads are not Clevelands heads due to the different water flow.

Steve's detailed off chassis restoration project began when he purchased what was one very tired and worn out Boss 302, in the fall of 1989.
The interesting thing is, once this was replaced, all starting, idling, stalling, and bucking has totally disappeared........I suppose there was a weak or erratic spark or perhaps ill-timed spark as a result of this module (which by the way was original and about 16 years old) I just wish it would have failed years ago.
