The Ford SHO V6 is a family of double overhead camshaft V6 engines fitted to the Ford Taurus SHO from 1989 to 1995, with SHO standing for Super High Output. It came out of a 1984 contract under which Yamaha Motor Corporation agreed to develop, produce and supply a compact 60 degree DOHC V6 for Ford, based on the existing Vulcan engine for transverse use. The 3.0 litre version displaced 2,986 cc, with an iron block, aluminium heads, 24 valves and a variable length intake manifold, and made 220 bhp at 6200 rpm. From 1993 a 3.2 litre version of 3,191 cc with the same power output was sold with an automatic transmission, while the 3.0 litre kept the manual gearbox. In 1996 Ford dropped the V6 and fitted a 3.4 litre SHO V8 to the Taurus SHO. Its symmetrical intake manifold made it a popular engine for transplants into other vehicles.
