What Exactly is an SVO Mustang?

An SVO mustang was a mustang built by special vehicle operation division of ford motor company. They were produced in 84', 85', 85.5', and 86' less than 10,000 were ever made in those three years. They were powered by a 2.3 turbo charged four cylinder, in 84' they had 175 hp and from 85' to 86' they were boosted up to 205 hp. They had koni shocks, 15:1 steering ration, four wheel disc brakes, a T-5 modefied by hurst. In 84' they had 3.42 posi rear end and later was moved up to a 3.73 posi. 16' wheels with VR50 gator back tires. The position of the pedals was modified to improve shifting. They have the best handling no 5.0 could out perform them side by side "stock." I know there are more special things that I left out about them but basicly they are great performers. Their main reason for production was to compete againts the porshe and other small 4 cylinder cars at I forgot what race.
