Re: New Project "R" thread

Spent the day at Vero Beach, Florida and got to meet Al Papitto. (Boss330)
He showed me some of his projects (Including his 9 sec. 5.4 powered Mustang),
and helped me make final engine configuration decisons.
The man is a wealth of info and experience with mod motors.
To say I was impressed with him is the ultimate understatement.
Here's a comparison of the Aussie Boss 290 intake and a prototype 2000 "R" lower manifold:
The Aussie manifold is on the left of the picture)



And here's something a bit "exotic" sitting in the corner....


Project "R" will have it's motor built in Vero beach, Fl.
Thanks Sooo much Al!! :ORANGE:
