the man-o-war block is much stronger than the new boss 302 block is. it is also capable of more cubic inches that the new boss block is.
yes you can add the blower and the nitrous to both blocks.
as for running a vacuum pump, it has been shown on the dyno to make power. on a big block chevy a vacuum pump helped make an extra 35hp on the dyno.

boost shouldn't be causing your leak. if it is, then you need to vent your crankcase better.
the man 'o war will hold more power then the new boss, but the boss will hold more power than most people will make. that $700 you save will go a long way for other parts.
Because my machine shop has had a rash of them since they came out. And they said it starts to get a little thin for street driving at .060. Not that it can't go farther. You can do a 347 also, but the pistons are deadly close to being out of the bottom. That shop won't even assemble a 342 in the new blocks because the skirts are so short.They have another over there right now. i'll see if I can steal some bore thickness measurements from them
I agree. It doesn't make any sense to me either. That's why I would have to see proof before I believe that Ford would make that mistake. No offense meant to anyone on this forum...
Now I'm even more confused. The subject is comparing the Man'o'war 302 block vs. the new FRPP Boss 302. the Man'o'war has 4 bolts on 1,2,3,4,5 while the Boss is 4 bolt on 2,3,4. The Dart sportsman block which is also a 4 bolt 2,3,4 wasn't mentioned but seems like a more logical comparison to the Boss 302. As far as price, using www.adperformance.com as a reference.
Boss 302: $1775
Man'o'war 302: $2275
Dart Sportsman 302: $1999
I'm not taking offense to anything, or any eyebrow raising at my Hack.Nobody called me a liar, yet.
Although on ford claimed .125, I wonder if they would recomend that bore in a street car....you can do it in a Dart.

because ford says "if they will buy it, we will build it." (seriously). ford and shelby are going on a "special edition" S197 mustang craze. they know that people will pay premium prices for limited number cars.
sorry!!! off topic....
