1972 Mustang Conv. BOSS 351 or 351 HO?

72BOSS351 · October 8th, 2006, 02:39 PM

Greetings~

I have just purchased a fully restored 1972 mustang convertible.
It has the following options: factory p top, p windows, 277hp 351 HO w/hurst 4 spd. w/mach1 front and rear spoilers, nasa hood (all supposed to be from the factory options ordered on the car when new.. I purchased the car from the 2nd owner who knew the 1st owner as I know the 2nd. The 2nd had the car repainted & restored with N.O.S. parts at a mustang resto shop. The front & rear spoilers/nasa hood are the same color red as the rest of the body. The 2nd owner also put on after market mags (gag). Im ordering the Mag 500 wheel set. He also replaced the intake and 4bb carb with an edebrock intake and 4bb carb. will the factory ram air cleaner fit back on the new carb?

My questions are I was told it was a BOSS 351, & that it was purchased in early 72. The car supposedly had BOSS decals on the front fenders But the 2nd owner couldnt find them.. Is this a true? I have checked the web and can not find any info on the 72 Boss or the 72 351 HO.

Before I have the body decals (last thing needed) put on I will need to find these Boss decals.

Thank you in advance.
