In Reply to: Is the old SVT so forgotten? posted by Mike Zamarocy on May 02, 2000 at 03:44:01:

: I don't really remember all the specs on the older Mustang SVT, but it had some decent power out of its Turbo 4cyl, and the suspension was done up quite well. Not a drag racer, but it DID make a good track car.

SVO. 2.3l Turbo 4.
Notice how many of those you see these days. (Zero)
It's a repressed memory thing, they overheated almost instantly. I can't imagine that anyone could put one to use on the track without completely toasting everything forward of the firewall. It was a nice idea, but the Fox chassis carries a 302 as well as anything can, so why mess with Ford's implementation of something (turbos) they don't understand.
