1971 Match Race ~ 'Duster 340' vs. 'Boss 351 Mustang'

You make a reasonable point "Tbone" as far as the Pony car aspect. But these threads by "69 Cuda 440" are geared toward straight line competition. With two well prepped/tuned cars and decent drivers, even the 3x2 E bodies would struggle to take out the 71' Boss.

I will add that this discussion is putting one of the special "high End" small blocks vs a mass produced "performance" engine. The fact that many 340 cars can run very close to a Boss351, LT1, Ramrod/W31 Olds, etc...is a testament to how special a relatively mild SBM really is.
