This is what the engine looked like just after I purchased the car.
I purchased it in April 1994.
My original engine Number is supposed to be 4G975AA, I havent checked
yet to see if the number on my Engine Tag Matches
yet.

Here is a cool photo of Fords 1984 demo 2.3 litre Turbo engine.
This is the engine for the SVO Mustang.
The Turbo anniversary Mustangs have the same engine but no intercooler.
In 1985 the SVO engine recieved minor modifications
that basically increased the horsepower from 175hp in
1984 to as much as 205hp.
This is the borg Warner T-5
5 Speed Transmission. Even though this one looks like the factory unit for the 2.3 litre turbo
Anniversary Mustang, it is actually an SVO unit! I Swapped out my original
for this one because the 1984 SVO T-5's were outfitted with much better internal
gear ratios. My original Transmission was jammed into 2 gears at once and
needed complete rebuilding wich would have cost around $600 - $700! this
SVO T-5 was a bargain from a salvage yard. I only paid $100 for it and
it is in tip top condition, the SVO it came from only had 32k miles on
it!

The SVO T-5 Transmission was equipped from the factory with a Hurst Shifter!
You can tell the husrt equippped units by looking for the Hurst logo on
the shifter cover plate.
