[Shotimes] ATX Tranny Filter

[Ron Porter]

Don't really know it went that way, as the 3.8 V6 Lincoln was out back in
'89 when they were working on the ATX for the SHO.

One of my Ford buddies was on the development team for Taurus, and was doing
SHO work. He personally was driving an ATX SHO when one of the test trannies
blew back in '89. They were having a hell of a time with it!

Memory is getting hazy now, but I believe that they really wanted the ATX
version out by around the '91 MY, but it never happened.

I thought I remembered that the SHO transaxle was developed for the
front-drive Lincolns, then with a transaxle sufficient for the SHO
horsepower they reengineered the packaging to fit the transaxle and offered
the ATX SHO.

> So my understanding is that there is no "SHO" or "non-SHO" transaxle.
