A Boss 302 is a heck of lot more fun to drive then a 68 350-----just sayin!!
In what ways? My friend has a 4K mile 69 Boss 302 with  3.91 gears. Bone stock. Driving it on it's repo polyglas tires is like driving a new one in 1969. They are slugs. Period. My 2019 Equinox is faster. The 68 302 4 speed is also a slug being even slower than the B2. The suspension are not much different on a B2 as the same suspension in 69 was used on later Shelbys. The B2 had a lot of potential when modified. The same could be said for other cars like the 68 302 Shelby(go the tunnel port route). To say a Boss 302 is a heck of a lot more fun to drive I'll tell you I have owned and driven both and not sure what you mean. A 4 speed 68 Gt350 with 3.89 gears isn't as fast but neither throw you back in your seat. Plus a 68 Shelby still looks "cooler" than a Boss 302 but that is an "opinion" of mine.
I'll take my old 68 Gt350 over a 69-70 B2 any day-other than the black  70 that was made.
