No comparrison what-so-ever. The BOSS 302 was a performance motor through and through with 400+ HP, where the IROC's 305 was basically a FI'ed smogger motor. I think they were rated somewhere around 235 HP, and most owners say they were nowhere near that!

Got a 305 in a 39 Ford deluxe. Gets down the road, but ain't fast. Car is candy apple red with flames. Looks hot, but a red light challenge will only lead to humilliation unless the challenge is with a Yugo.

Especially since some of those little rice burners are pumping out 260 hp from a little 4 cyl. The 39 is a delightful cruiser and will avg 23 mpg hiway. Runs cool now with 2 pushers and 1 big puller fan. With little space under the hood and a lack of good ventilation, it can be a hottie. Just got to remember to leave the red light challenges to others.
