Platform mate to the Mustang SVO. It's basically an SVO with a lot of options. The engine was the standard Thunderbird Turbo Coupe intercooled 2.3L I-4. Borg warner T-5 manual for the stickshift, rear wheel drive. You shouldn't have a hard time finding powertrain parts I wouldn't think. They were a little heavy for the I4 and a Mustang chassis due to all the extra's, but with 175hp that can easily be bumped up with a little extra boost to 220hp or so, they can give a 5.0HO a run for it's money in many cases.
