            The Ford SHO Taurus of the late 90's had the Yamaha V8 built motor. The current generation SHO Taurus is an entirely different beast. V6 Twin Turbo.

                                        Somebody sent me valve shims, and I never sent back the ones I took out. Who was that? Can you PM me your address?
