Also better resale, better tires and better suspension and brakes to I believe
Coyote 5.0 4v vs. boss 302
Which is better for the price considering the boss only gives 30 more horsepower for 6k

Boss is gonna have forged internals. Which is a huge plus.
I just would never feel right modding a boss though. Exactly why I didn't wait and get one. I'd feel the need to keep a car like that stock.

Opps I meant to say if you installed the engine
It's forged internals, fully adjustable suspension, better tires, and all together a beast of a car.
wish I spent the extra 6 in the long run when that cars worth a lot more than just a 5.0
The boss motor has forged internals, a more free flowing intake, and can rev much higher than the stock 302. Not a huge difference on paper with power numbers, but it is a superior motor in about every way from the quality of materials and capabilities of the motor.
They're amazing cars, if you cant afford the new coyotes you can probably take the extra (better) step and get the boss. Not really that much more expensive when you look at what all it has
What all is better inside of the boss?
Inside? As in interior or the engine?
Engine sorry
upgraded intake system, forged rotating assembly, Cnc ported heads, revised camshafts and a high flow intake and has 3.73 gears i believe
I can buy most of these things and put them into coyote correct me if I'm wrong
Thats just the engine. Also has upgraded suspension, exhaust, tires. And the car will hold its value better than a modded coyote.
Either would be an awesome car to own though

Only worth more left stock. Year and years when it becomes a collector car it will only be a collector car stock.wish I spent the extra 6 in the long run when that cars worth a lot more than just a 5.0

Sure can. I bet it'd be cheaper to upgrade the coyote engine than to buy the boss engine. Just won't really have a warranty on it.I can buy most of these things and put them into coyote correct me if I'm wrong

Upgraded suspension on a coyote with after market would take the boss any day. The boss suspension is pretty good but there is still far better out there.Thats just the engine. Also has upgraded suspension, exhaust, tires. And the car will hold its value better than a modded coyote.

A coyote can be upgraded to beat the boss for less then the boss price. Also a boss will more than likely loose its value if not kept stock.
Okay I have a v6 I'm figuring which engine to get. I'm going with coyote because the boss is only better if you actually buy the boss, so coyote with mods to everything will be better so therefore coyote?

Why not sell v6 and get the 5.0?? Too many things have to be swapped out??Okay I have a v6 I'm figuring which engine to get. I'm going with coyote because the boss is only better if you actually buy the boss, so coyote with mods to everything will be better so therefore coyote?
I have another car with all parts I need
Ooooooo.... this is the Ghost of Mustang Future... you should have paid the extra 6k... in 2019 the 6cyl will be worth 8k, the GT will be worth 16k, and the Boss will be worth 32k... OOOOOOoooooooo, spend the extra 6k on the Boss...spend it on the Bossssssss
