Looking at FordMedia.com it appears that they will only bring the 302 back as a crate engine... of course they could change their mind at a moments notice or someone else could buy the engines and sell a "302" made with it... (i.e. Roush, Saleen, Foose, Legend)... you never know...
<b>FORD RACING BRINGS THE BOSS BACK WITH NEW LINE OF BOSS 302 CRATE ENGINES</b>
Ford resurrects legendary 5.0-liter V-8 engine with all new Ford Racing BOSS 302.
New line of BOSS crate engines are capable of delivering up to 500 horsepower
Race ready and affordably priced, starting at $4650
LAS VEGAS, Oct. 31, 2006 - Ford [NYSE: F] today announced at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show that it is reviving the legendary 5.0-liter 302 cubic inch V-8 engine for the aftermarket with a new line of BOSS 302 crate engines, which will go on sale in early 2007.
Making its debut in 1969, the original BOSS 302 powered a limited production Mustang model sold for two years, which was known as the BOSS 302. The car got its name from the legendary engine that powered the Mustang to a Sports Car Club of American Trans-Am series win in 1970.
“The original BOSS 302 was a race winning engine. Sharing the DNA from the original BOSS 302, the new BOSS 302 begins with a block designed with racing in mind from the beginning,” said Jamie Allison, manager, Ford Racing Performance Group. “Whether racing in a sealed engine class, building an all-out drag racing engine or looking for a street performer, the BOSS 302 block and engine family meets the needs of all Ford 302 enthusiasts at a price that is comparable to a performance-prepped stock 302.”
