Boss 429 trivia

The carb on the Boss 302 was bigger than the Boss 429 carb. December 2009 Musclecar Review, page 32

Reason? Lowering the performance of the 429 to fool the insurance companies, because more people would buy the Boss 429 if they felt the insurance would be affordable, and then take the Boss 429 to a speed shop and have it rebuilt for maximum power.
