ive heard of it before. i think in mm&ff they talked about a future boss mustang with a v10.

That is a different one. The one your thinking about is the Boss 351 Concept. It was a 2000 Mustang with a experimental V10 in it. It was the test bed for the Ford Shelby Cobra Concept.
 
I would think you would have to do some serious computer tunning. We have a F250 at work with the V10 and that thing has great low end power and torque but the top end is not so good. Cams would help I imagine. Do they make any performance parts for the v10?

They sell a blower for it. Both centrifugal and positive displacement.
 
I'd like to see one of these strapped to the top fo that engine....

For 12lbs of boost and 422ci (6.9l) it's not that impressive, I'd even say lousy HP/TQ numbers :notnice: :notnice:

A 15psi KB on a 281ci (4.6l) (50% smaller displacement) will make similar HP and TQ and save a lot of weight :rlaugh:

Those V10's are designed for towing applications. Put some cams in it and it should get better numbers.
 
No replacement for displacement.

6.8L + blower > 4.6L + blower.....all day long.

Not to mention that to make 15psi with a KB would require a 2.2 kit and forged internals. Even if you do save of weight, that’s mucho-money and you’re still stuck buying a cowl howl hood.
