Got 2 97's both red ones for whenever the other one takes a crap. Wish they would have made them rwd and optional manual. Can't beat leather power everything and decent power from the motor but if I wanna make alot of power for not alot of money you can't beat Chevrolet that's why I bought a 70 nova 396 4 speed Muncie if I wanna fuck with ricers that's what gets rolled out of the garage not the sho lol
@firefighter3427 ...... yeah i like your third car alot better ... i've got two sho's one 93 v6 5-speed i've got a video on here of it and one 2001 v6 auto .. but i do have a 1982 c-10 ( also a vid on here of it ) that has a built 350 with a muncie 4 speed out of a 68 nova ss ... im sure your nova would outrun my truck but if your nova goes half as fast as my truck does those ricers wont have a chance ... i have a 65 mustang with 289 i used to mess with ricers with it too....
i have a question do you thing my 98 ford taurus SE could do that its a 3.0 v6 and i dont want to do it until im sure it wont fuck up the car so plzz write back
thanks for blowing my speakers while you yell into the camera mic. people recording never realize they shouldn't breathe all over the camera or scream into as it just ruins an otherwise good video.
wow big fucking deal a front wheel drive car doing a burnout in a puddle of water your a fucking bitch i used to have a 3cyl sprint that could do the same thing
V8 SHO's are 235 Horsepower. 1/4 mile time probably high 14's to low 15's for stock, I would believe.
V6 SHO's are low 14's stock,. I had an 89 and a 93. The 89 was even faster than the 93. It had a 0-60 time of 6.6 stock, which isn't too bad for 4 door sports sedan.
what was the V8 SHO running? A 5.0HO outta a stang or what? becaue thats about the HP and 1/4 time for a foxbody abit slower i believe but close to it.
My friend never ran it at the track but I still stick by my times. Maybe the V8 is low 16's from stock, I'm not sure, I was just giving some times for people to SHO (haha) what they can do.
@derekisaac1 I have 92 MTXSHO and a 97V8SHO. The v8 is alright and much easier/more comfortable to drive. Gen2's feel kind of 'thrown together' in comparison.
If you have $9k to modify a Gen3 SHO, it will be reasonably fast, the cams won't break, you'll have an LSD and probably not a whole lot else. Stick to your v6 if you want something to modify. Get a v8 SHO, get the cams welded and get a trans cooler for it if you want to be comfortable. Gen3 SHOs handle amazing though, brakes are weak.
@derekisaac1 the v6 sho's are faster i own a 92 sho and i work on them all the time, the only thing nicer in the v8's is that they have good exhaust noise and they are a bit newer
@derekisaac1 LOL. That's sad that you don't have what it takes to earn the money yourself. If it was given to you then it was never yours. LOL. Stupid.
@derekisaac1 same here, i got a red 97 V8 SHO for my 16th bday, but still trying to figure out how to get an aftermarket cd player in there...and i roasted the tires at homecoming two years ago, these cars are legit.
Whats the deal with the welded cams? I just bought a 96 SHO and now all I hear about is welded cams. Is it a performance thing or almost a required thing at some point?
It's a required thing....the cam sprockets were pressed onto the camshafts, and after the 40,000 mile mark, the sprocket can and WILL walk off of the camshaft. Since this engine is an interference design, if the cams stop turning, the pistons will collide with the valves and wreck the entire engine. Welding the cams is about a $750 job, and well worth the money, because otherwise, you're looking at a destroyed engine and a few grand.
depending on where you are, I know a guy who does it in Virginia Beach. He did mine, and he powdercoated my intake manifold and front valve cover. it looks wild, but don't spray degreaser on it.
used to have a sho and wanted to do this kind of stuff to it but i stopped hearing of people who did stuff like that and couldnt find any place that still sold aftermarket performance parts...so i sold it :(
thats pretty cool, but how do you do it, im sorry if that sounds stupid, but im only 16 and i have a 1992 ford taurus GL 3.0 v6 with ABS and i cant do a burnout at all, i dont know if im doing something wrong or what. i got this car from on of my dads friends for $600 and it only has 50k miles. not to bad id say
well we soaked the ground in oil so we wouldn't burn up our tires as bad, then i hammered the e-brake as hard as i could and then i just hammered on the gas. Its really easy i've done it a few times with no problems
If you're '92 is running right just rev it up to 4 grand, dump the clutch, and put the pedal on the floor... it will do a great burn out or you have some problems with your car.
The Gen I are still the better car, just because Ford put a bigger engine doesn't mean it's better. Yamaha's 3.0 v6 was the best engine, when Ford took over and got help from Yamaha it started going downhill...
Yeah, i don't know about those Yamaha heads. I think those V8's have a lot of potential though.Of course, i'd put a supercharger or a 5.0 in if it could fit.
Hey mediarocker, thanks for correcting spelling, Now check your facts. ;) The Gen 1 had the 3.0L only. The Gen II had the 3.0L in the MTX and the 3.2L in the ATX. All Gen III's like the one in this video had the 3.4L V8.
Gen 1 and Gen 2 Both had 3.0's with the 5 speed. The gen 2's had a 3.2 only with the automatic. It had a little more torque but the same horsepower, just to offset the automatic's sluggishness a little.
w/e its made by ford so thats why i said ford power also if i where to say yamaha power it would not make sence because its a ford,and no im not from alabama and im not 15
You know, if someone wants to do something like this and post it for you to watch, why don't you just enjoy it? It's his car, so shut your mouth. Nice burnout brox. And that's from a GM fan.
the camshaft has already been welded and i've had a motor rebuild and a trans rebuild..... whats so wrong with havin a lil fun gettin rid of old tires..... i'd say your the douchebag
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You....are aware that these models are already prone to an issue with their camshafts prematurely snapping in 1/2...aren't you? But as you look like some teenage douchebag, my bet would be "probably not".
OH HELL YEAH MUTHA FUCKAS! YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF 4 EVER TREATING A FORD LIKE THAT! (:>)
