3.4 v8. From what I read online it is a Japanese engineered motor only for that series of SHO's
The *real* SHO's (IMO) were the ones with the 220HP Yamaha v6 and a 5-speed. I had a 1991 ((sort of a)Raspberry red with black interior). They revved real high and quick. Just a blast to drive. Being FWD, even with 5 people in the car, It would slam them into the back of their seats with the tires spinning and break 'em loose hitting 2nd gear too. I wish my Marauder was like that off the line. Too bad the rest of the car was a Taurus.
