Just want to say hi I am new to Maverick and to fords. I recently purchased a maverick with what I believe is a boss 302.
Welcome to the world of Mavericks this is great community. Now as for being a Boss 302 many have claimed that being that they do not know about Fords engines, more than likely you just have a 302. Please tell us more about your car and plans for it, we always welcome pictures and have a garage section to post them in . Lots of reading on this site for just about anything you can do with your car
Welcome to the site from northeast Ohio!!! What is it about your 302 that leads you to believe it is a Boss? Pictures of your car and engine would be good.
No Maverick came from the factory with a Boss 302, so if it has one, someone swapped it in, in which case I'm sure the asking price for the car would be a lot.
There is no minimum post requirement - there is a limit on file size and if the picture is big it must be resized. If the picture is hosted someplace - use the link button on the tool bar that looks like a square with mountains (next to the smily face) - if the picture is on your pc use the upload a file button - that should do it. Real quick look at a boss - Cleveland heads have an 8 bolt valve cover vs the Windsor having 6 bolts - and all the boss blocks used screw in core hole plugs (freeze plugs)
I searched out his attachment - here it is …………….. I see 8 bolt valve covers - sure looks like something fun in there …………….
Well they are not 302 valve covers and are probably boss 302 or 351 cleveland valve covers . Perhaps it is a clevor motor ?
Dayum, shore 'nuff looks like a Boss 302 to me. Valve covers are factory correct fo B02 & oil cap is is 1969 vintage. Can we get a shot of the casting number on intake? Just between dist and carb.
