For us younger guys what is the tasca super boss 429? Im only 20 so most of em were probibly gone by the time I was born.

There was only one Tasca Super Boss....the one in the picture. It is believed to be long gone.
Any you might see or hear of now is a clone.

its alive- that pic is of the restored car.
494 inch MAGNESIUM Boss 429 motor was a spare for andrettis Can-Am car. I got the article here somewhere- had it hangin in the garage for a while...think it ran like 10.75 in streetable trim. Mountain motor power at less than smallblock weight...

that tasca Boss 429 is a alum can am motor,i think its a 494 cu.in. motor, back in the day tasca would bet money on anything that would beat it, i dont think it was ever beat, i know its been restored and i have it somewhere in either mustang monthly or some ford mustang magazine, that cool Boss 9 is unreal.

heres a good article on the restored tasca car- wow...gotta keep looking, as I'm almost certain I read canams were magnesium, not aluminum...

Somewhere I'd read tasca procured a mag motor for their car, and it was a spare for andrettis can-am car...tired of looking for the page though...I give up

<<<Here is a photo of the ultimate Boss, the rare Can Am 494, an exotic version of the Boss 429 NASCAR engine. Using standard Hilborn injection only thirteen (13) full aluminium engines were made and five (5) of the ultra rare magnesium engines. A reputed 700HP + was obtainable from this setup.
