Boss 302 stocker

I've got an old mag from 70 or 71 that put the two 302 against each other on the dyno. After changing springs, cam(factory part number cams) headers,etc both were well over 400hp.(a lot back then with a 290hp rating) The chevy nosed over around 7600 or 7800 or something like that and they went on and on about the boss going to 8200 and just wanting more. I forget how high they turned it but with factory internals it was amazing. I think it was SS/DI but might of been Hot Rod or or another generic mag.
