IIRC most of the cars at SEMA were concepts that dont even run (or run correctly), its all about the show and glow.

Wonder what happened to all the SHOs from last years SEMA Show?

Did anyone notice the black one in the background? Or am I stuipd and it's a regular taurus?
It's the Police Interceptor concept that's discussed in this thread. There's a picture of it on the 2nd page where you can see the SHOx in the background.

Please guys give me a break, this my 37th SEMA build and they all run and are
fully functional cars. You guys are way to critical. Did you even notice the wheels with the nickel plated lips and the grey -blue anodized centers and nickel plated calipers ? We are taking a SHO too new heights ! The stereo by the way is 1600 watts not 16,000 don't know where they got that info.
Hahn Racecraft will doing staged power upgrades throughout the coming year.
His 2.0L EcoTech GMs are in the high 400s whp, the 3.5L Ford will be epic.
my goal is help get some cool product in the market place for the NEW SHO !
Cheers everyone,

I painted a Subaru Ski Patrol concept vehicle a couple of years ago for SEMA. It was fully functional....as are all of the cars I've personally seen....(with the exception of the ones attached to the walls as displays and such)

I don't see how most of them aren't functional to drive at least (maybe not run good but still). Most of those cars are just about looks, so they don't bother doing anything to the engine and therefor they must run.

I'm not big on painted/colored wheels, but I do like those. Actually, I'm not sure about the color (I'd like to see it in a more natural environment) or the stripe on the side, but I like pretty much everything else about the car that I can see. And, of course, the extra 100 ponies that I can't see. :evilgrin:

Rick,

Thanks for posting. I'm interested to hear more about your setups, as well as what you are finding for transmission longevity. From what I understand, the 6F55 is "at the limit" for the amount of power that the SHO puts out......

Considering it's a SEMA vehicle it probably doesn't get much time on the road. This car is too new for anyone to know about longevity being stock or with a tune.

I was under the impression that the 55 in 6F55 was the torque rating of the tranny divided by 10. Is this not the case? Surely they wouldnt advertise a tranny being able to handle 550ft/lbs when it will only handle no more than 400...

The 6F55 is used in the Raptor with a 6.2L which has more power and torque than our cars.
