The "ultimate" Mustangs - The Boss 302 was the class act in Trans Am racing, and the Boss 429 was simply the most overpowered Pony car Ford ever made...and that's saying something!

Today's Super Sport Camaros and Firebird Firehawks built by SLP outperform the sixties musclecars in every way, from handling and comfort to safety and straight-line acceleration.

A car which succeeded wonderfully following the original musclecar concept - find the lightest body you can, put in the biggest engine you've got (even the Hemi!), and hang on!
