A whole year?!
Yeah, so far everyone running them says they have been lasting forever.

One other guy in a Mustang said he thought he could get a year and a half out of them, but he is running the ATS calipers so they are a bit bigger than the ones I have.

That's insane.

Completed our first wheel to wheel race weekend with NASA, great group of guys in the Florida region, we entered the car in American Iron. MT82 was not having it and we were forced to race with only 4th gear. Finally after blowing enough of the getrags I made the decision to go up to a T56 Magnum XL, will begin install probably sometime in the next 2 weeks to have the car ready for the NASA race at Homestead Miami Speedway.

Even with only 4th gear we had an amazing weekend and got to meet an outstanding group of people. Here’s some pics/videos. After the magnum swap is done I’ll be done with this thread and will post regularly on our races and such.

Well after much heart break with the MT82 transmission, it was time to say goodbye. To the trans lol. Ordered a Magnum XL swap thanks to Lethal Performance and was able to swap everything out, tolerances are tighter than a virgin but a great swap kit overall. Shouldn’t have any more problems

Incredible find, build thread, and always nice to have a junior crew chief helping. Curious what 302R number yours has on the build plate (BOSS302R XXX). Also curious where you sourced your exterior decals?

If you have not already, you may want to list your R here:


We can likely help with parts sourcing, history, and other bits

Awesome! Thank you for the info. I’ll head over and list it over there. Didn’t know there was a registry. We had some good fun this past weekend at HMS for the last race of the season honestly I found a company on eBay who did the regular boss 302 hockey sticks and then I sent them a reference from some photos of the boss 302R livery. They came through and recreated it without issue and I received it in about a week or two.
