Does Boss come with an auto option?
I told my dad I thought it did, he said uhhh I dont think it does... I know the Mach did, do they make an Auto Boss? I googled it and couldnt find any info, just HP #s and talking about sticker graphic colors...

GD it. lol My dad is too lazy to shift, I told him a Boss with a D1 make 850 rw or so and call it a day (built motor stock). Would be easier to get my Mustang back if he had another toy.

You still have to upgrade the billet oil pump gear on those cars. And damn how much boost is someone running making that power. I don't think even the boss shortblock will last long with that much power.

No. Neither the GT500 or the Boss have a automatic option.
If your pops wants a fast auto, tell him to get a CTS-V coupe! Slammed on a nice set of wheels, ported blower and exhaust = balls to the walls fast old guy car.

You can swap to an auto. A guy on SVTP that ran Texas Mile has an A6 installed in his boss for his wife.

Ive tried man, he isnt into the Caddys... even had him sit in Will's black one and Will told him to drive it, he said he just wasnt into it. ![Nono](images/smilies/nono.gif) He keeps bringing up the gd ZL-1 instead, and I yell at him to regain his senses.
