Underhood is wall to wall...
Underhood is wall to wall motor and the 32-valve installation looks like a factory affair. The dual overhead cam configuration of the engine makes it wider than the Windsor, FE or 385-series V-8s. While Kar Kraft of Brighton, Michigan, was able to modify the shock towers for the original Boss 429 installations, the absence of the shock towers is imperative for this engine conversion.

With 750 horsepower underhood...
With 750 horsepower underhood we're sure that the full 'cage gives passengers a secure feeling. The side and rear components of the rollcage are detachable to enable easy access for Grandma as she saddles up for a test ride. A full cluster of JME/Auto Meter carbon-fiber gauges complement the modern Corbeau buckets nicely. This interior is a job where no detail was ignored and the overall effect is certainly impressive.
