    Yeah, the Challenger R/T was more swank, and the Boss 429 more of a brute....but I'm not so sure about the comfort/luxury comparison. The Boss 429 in this video has the upgraded interior, virtually the same as the Mach 1. It was actually quite plush by musclecar standards and the seats are often regarded as among the best of the era, comfort-wise.

    I owned Boss 429 KK2034 for over 30 years. I ran it with the original "820-T" factory engine and headers, later putting in an actual Holman and Moody spec NASCAR 429, with one of the twenty Super Stock (Mickey Thompson Drag program) original two four barrel intakes. The original motor was probably around 390 real flywheel horsepower - 735 cfm Holley and mild cam signed off at 6,000 rpm - the Boss 429 Mustang was, as noted, only sold to the public to make the engine legal for NASCAR. The HM NASCAR motor would easily keep pulling hard way past 7000 rpm (where I limited it), and with a 4000 lb car, full gas tank, me (250 lbs) would run 122 mph quarter miles on too small 10" Goodyears (that slide rules out to about 650 HP). Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins (of Chevrolet Pro Stock fame) after examining the design, stated it had more potential than ANY other big block engine - and Bob Glidden proved that - with years of domination of NHRA Pro Stock with his Thunderbird, and it had at least 50 horsepower over the 426 Hemi on the Super Speedways - which is why Chrysler built the Daytonas and Superbirds - to make up the shortage in streamlining. By the way, the Boss 429's were invoiced directly to Shelby American on the window sticker - which ticked off Carroll Shelby since they competed directly with his Shelby GT-500.
    Awesome road car, very comfortable and handled surprisingly well for so much forward weight. Miss it I do! Mike

    The Boss 'Stang is a great car, great collector with NASCAR roots, albeit homologated in the Mustang for just one year but intended for racing in the Talladega.
    BUT - There's no way in Detroit that I would pick it over the Hemi Challenger. The Hemi was the KING KONG of performance, with better performance from the factory for public use. The BOSS will never have the iconic "brute force" reputation the 426 had, and still has to this day.

      A stock Hemi Cuda or Challenger would beat a stock Boss 429 by a pretty decent margin in the 1/4 mile. The Hemi E-Bodies ran very low 13's but the Boss9 ran low 14's. A 428 CJ Mustang with a 3.91 or 4.30 rear can beat a Boss9 in the 1/4 mile so a Boss9 doesnt have much of a chance against the Hemi. At least not in stock form. Lose the smog pump, install a bigger carb, headers, and a more aggressive camshaft and ignition curve and the Boss9 is an absolute MONSTER. A completely different car with just those few mods

      Jeremy Thompson the Boss ‘9 isn’t, and never was a drag engine. It would run all day long compared to some others, as we all know it was designed for use in nascar, not drag racing. The logical choice for Ford would have been to put it in the Galaxie, but logic doesn’t generally come into play with performance cars...they wanted to have some fun with it. A Boss 302 would outrun it on a road course, and a Boss 351 would beat it in the 1/4, but the 429 just has that extra bit of mystique.

      I tend to agree. The Mustang got the Boss 429 as an afterthought. To the point Ford wasn't even involved in stuffing that engine in. The Dodge was engineered with a Hemi option from the start.

    The Boss 429 had the pedigree and hardware, but a stock one wouldn't fall out of a tree. A well tuned Hemi would back up the reputation it had.

      Hemi was a mutt on the street just the same, although slightly less. The hemi also dual quads while the boss used a teenzy 735 Holley while the baby B302 had a 780 Holley, funny huh. The exhaust manifolds are anemic on the 29 compared to the hemi as well, thanks to the shock towers. Cam specs were also tame. The B9 head with the monster intake port is more suited for a 460+” engine minimum not a 429. Give the boss the setup it deserved and it’s taking that 426’s lunch every time. It was a bad combo on fords part, not the engines fault. It easily would have been the top gun muscle car had ford done it justice. All just to try to make it more “streetable”

      @@RacingRon47 I agree with you. The Boss 429 could have been the hottest muscle car ever built. The hardware and potential were there. As you pointed out Ford hamstrung the engine, with the intake, cam and exhaust. The 426 Hemi was also finicky and had to be well tuned to run its best as I said in my comment. A 440 six barrel did also. A well tuned Hemi was bad to the bone. And that was without replacing parts. No amount of tuning would make the Boss 429 run like the Hemi without changing some of the parts you mentioned.

      A mutt? All you had to do was turn a few screws. Easy to bring big ponies. There both great cars but the Chally could be sold for enough to buy the boss and have enough left over for...whatever.

      ​@@srt8rocketship241Turning a few screws wouldn't work on the Boss 429. You had to change out the cam, intake, and put on a set of headers. Which was unfortunate because Ford had everything else nailed. The Hemi was very finicky but as you said turning a few screws would work on it. A stock well tuned Hemi would make around 500hp at six grand. It has been proven many times.

      @@shawnturbeville994 I was replying to the 426 being a mutt. LO23 Darts and CUDA's showed what a little tweaking could do back then. They banned this engine from SS racing because of Superior head design. Then after years the figured Ford and Chevy had caught up and let 'em back. Ray Barton with modern technology pulled a clean 100 more ponies out and the HEMI blew up the class again. Barton is the Elephant Man. That's my opinion along with many others. The 429 with Shotgun heads and all the supporting internals is a Beast as well. I like the SOHC with gear drive timing myself. That is a forgotten HEMI that had all the potential. Blame it's fate on Ford pulling the plug. My opinion as well.

    I really have great love for BOTH cars. My favorite would be the Mustang for my favorite year of Mustang styling, plus the more performance-oriented vibe of the car, as well as the color. Now if it was a Lime Green 1970 Challenger T/A with the 340 versus this Mustang, that’s a much-tougher call... Always a GREAT show, and well-narrated. Thanks very much.
