    New V8 SHO shortblock

    I was trolling CList for stuff I don't need and came across this. https://sacramento.craigslist.org/pts/d/west-sacramento-ford-taurus-sho-engine/7917192908.html Seems like a decent price if someone needed it.

    White 90 SHO in NorCal

    https://mendocino.craigslist.org/cto/d/laytonville-1990-ford-taurus-sho/7842693651.html Found this trolling Craigslist. Be a decent price if the odo hasn't been rolled. Maybe a VIN history would give some insight.

    I am OK

    I am OK. My family is OK too. Even all three of our houses are OK, thank God. If you know who I am, you know what I own. For those who don't, the avatar should clear things up. This last weekend a "controlled" burn got out of hand. For those in Cali, that probably surprises no one. We left...

    Need coolant hoses

    I need some help from you guys. The other night I was coming home and lost coolant. Had my mechanic rip it apart, and I popped one of the lines going from one of the heads into the top of the coolant reservoir. Also, when he took it apart, the plastic Y broke. So, I am asking if anyone has a...

    Tell me why this won't work

    I got to thinking the other day, which is a scary thing if you know me. I saw an old AWD Tempo. Went to the internet and started reading about them. Thought they were quite interesting, as the system was developed just for the Tempo/Topaz platform. Digging, one thing I noticed is the AWD...

    Need Air Bag help

    OK guys, I need some help/advice. My bro hit a(nother) deer with the 96. Not much damage, but enough of a jar to set off the airbags. Cosmetically, all it needed is a hood and a headlight. Now I have done some research and am getting conflicting answers. Some people say that all you have to do...

    CCRM Issues

    OK folks, I need some help. The AC on my 96 SHO isn't working. I had an issue similar to this a few years back, and the CCRM solved the problem. This time though, it seems the CCRM fries after 5 minutes. Ac won't work, stick a new CCRM in it, AC works for 5 minutes and then quits. I have tried...

    Alumaseal

    OK guys, I need a little advice. The SHO Wagon I bought leaks a little coolant. I think it is the heater core leaking. You can smell it inside the cabin, especially when the heater is on. Anyway, my dad is bound and determined to put some Alumaseal in the car to see if that solves it. I am...

    Musings and Questions

    OK, since I have owned a Gen III for years, I have had a lot of time to think about things I want to do or try on a SHO. I am not an expert, and now I have gotten into the community I thought I would start asking some questions. Now, I already know the #1 way to make a Taurus fast. Zach taught...

    1999 SHO in NY

    Saw this will hunting Craigslist the other day. Looks super clean. Too bad it isn't on the west coast. Asking price is probably less than a tranny, TC, and cam weld job. http://rochester.craigslist.org/cto/5435967245.html

    Wanted: V8 SHO lower intake manifold

    Anyone have a cheap lower intake manifold for ole Nukie? I am looking for the part that holds the butterflies for the IMRCs. I don't think I need the butterflies or related parts, since I think I am going to convert one to run without it. That way when I tear down the top of my 96, I can just...

    SHOForum hats, shirts and stickers

    Howdy all. The other day I was talking to our gracious admin about a few hats I was doing for myself. I told him that I had a friend that ran an embroidery shop, and he mentioned he wouldn't mind doing hats and shirts with the forum name on them. I also told him I knew someone that did vinyl...

    Want a Quaife

    By a show of hands, who here is going to laugh at me for wanting a Quaife LSD for the Wagon for less than 4 figures? But really I would really like one, I am just a broke SHO owner right now.

    Need some help

    I could really use some help on my car. It needs an oil leak fixed, a tune up performed, intake manifold cleaned, and in a perfect world, the UDP I bought installed. So, if there is someone in the northern California area, or western Nevada area who knows about Gen IIIs, I would be more than...

    Torque converter question(s)

    So I was reading about TQs for my 96. And near as I could tell, it seemed that the 96 SHOs shared the same TQ as the 94 and 95 SHOs. I was wondering if that was actually true. Cause really, I would like something like a 3500 to 3700 RPM stall converter for my Gen III. I can't for the life of...

    It was a sad day...

    It was a sad yesterday. I raced some guy in a Forester yesterday, and got killed. I cried a little on the inside. Anyway, where I live, the last light in town has 2 lanes that turn into one, and the road out of town is the highway leaving. I had the through lane. Took off, held it down...

    Door Ajar Light

    Hi, I'll start out and introduce myself. My name is Bart, and I am a SHO addict. My first was a 96 V8. I still have that, and my first post here was for a CAI for it. This however is my first real post here. And it will be a doosie. So everyone knows, the car in question is a 87 Sable wagon...

    WTB: Gen III SHO CAI

    I would like to buy SHOShop or SHOSource intake kit for a 96 SHO as a gift for my brother. I know I could do a saxacone mod, or do a Porterized intake setup, but I want one of the SHOShop or SHOSource type systems. Thanks in advance.
