blackbob 03-30-2002, 02:08 PM Ok all I wanna Know is what is the ford taurus capable of ?:confused: El_Kameleon 03-31-2002, 07:50 PM If your thinking about a taurus just make shure its a SHO model. I have an 89 SHO its got a Yamaha designed and built 3.0 litre 24Valve 220 HP v6 and a five speed manual trans. 0-60 in the low to mid sixes the 1/4 mile in high 13's to mid 14's stock depending on year and trans. And its a good sleeper. For more info go to www.shotimes.com and www.shoforum.com blackbob 04-02-2002, 07:43 PM ONe word ........DAMN....I never knew a family car could do so much. MY mom had a taurus but it was a GL. Dude if I woulda Known this spiecies of taurus existed I woulda got one.:D El_Kameleon 04-02-2002, 08:08 PM One more thing is that there cheap to buy and insure. My 89 costed $1200 and insurance is the same as a regular taurus. Yamahapower 09-30-2002, 04:07 AM Originally posted by El_Kameleon If your thinking about a taurus just make shure its a SHO model.

For more info go to www.shotimes.com and www.shoforum.com Actually realistic numbers are 0-60 in 6.6 and a 14.9-15.2 stock. 13s would require power adders, low 14s would require some major mods and slicks. But i can see why it might be deceiving, my car feels like a 14 second car. Its jsut that traction is hard to come by and kills the sho in the 1/4. It was the fastest US sedan in history in 1989. Yamahapower 10-12-2002, 06:14 PM :) Blackhaven 10-21-2002, 11:37 PM Bet you ran out of gas soon after...:D Maybe i can trade me 94 GL for a 89 SHO. I know some Sho's had major head gasket problems which cost anywhere from 600$ and up to fix. (not sure which model years) Yamahapower 11-08-2002, 08:32 PM SHos dont have head gasket problems! Thats the 3.8L engine... blackbob 11-16-2002, 09:49 AM so when did you run out of gas ? Yamahapower 11-16-2002, 06:41 PM LOL, Shit shos get hella good gas. Ford ZX2 1999 02-27-2003, 06:37 PM According to Edmunds.com, the Taurus SHO sedan has a 3.4 liter 235hp engine with 230 lb/ft torque, 0-60 in 7.7 seconds... At home, we have a 24V Taurus. It has a 200 hp engine. Can't tell you exact specs other than that though... don't know them off-hand Yamahapower 02-27-2003, 06:55 PM Thats the V8 sho with auto transmission only, the older SHOs with the V6s did 0-60 in 6.6 15.2 1/4...

I was trying to convey a newer SHO, yes.

This is what he's talking about........... Jays_sho 02-28-2003, 01:14 AM Originally posted by Ford ZX2 1999 I was trying to convey a newer SHO, yes. Here is another one of my SHO.... Jays_sho 02-28-2003, 01:18 AM Want to see more look here.......http://www.superford.org/registry/index.php?vID=2205 blackbob 03-02-2003, 09:14 PM That's all really,really nice and all. But not I got a new little project of my own. Trying to either turbo or supercharge my lincoln as seen in the sig. ~Blackbob~ Ringo 03-11-2003, 04:42 PM This is what my Taurus can do, to my dad: Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
