What is the difference between a ford boss 351C and a 351C 4v?

In 1971 ford made the 351C boss, what were the difference between this and the 351C 4V (CJ)|||The Ford Boss 351 is a 351 cu in (5.8 L) 335 "Cleveland" V8 fitted with 4V (4V meaning 4 venturi (barrel) carburetor, not 4 valves) style closed-chambered 351C heads. The engine was available only in 1971 production Boss 351 Mustangs. It has four-bolt main block/caps and a premium crankshaft, as both are constructed from high-strength nodular iron. The cylinder head was modified for better airflow and solid lifters. It had an aluminum intake manifold and came with a Ford Autolite spreadbore carburator. Aluminum valve covers added to the look. The forged connecting rods were shot-peened and magnafluxed for strength, and used stronger bolts/nuts. Forged domed pistons gave a 11.3:1 nominal (11.1:1 advertised) compression ratio. Only 1806 Boss 351 Mustangs were produced by Ford that year. Currently there are only 591 registered and accounted for on the Boss 351 Registry site. The engine, like most Ford engines, was underrated. In the January 2010 issue of Hot Rod Magazine, they built a Boss 351 to exact specs of an original motor. It produced 383 hp at 6,100 rpm, and 391 lb-ft torque at 4,000 rpm.
