Yes they have a Yamaha 3.4L V-8.

SCCH very good find, do you know if the cams have been welded already? I dont know if you know a lot about the SHO's or not but check out www.v8sho.com (http://www.v8sho.com) for information about pretty much anything on the SHO's or send me a PM...I have a ton of parts for sell as well;)

Thanks,

Nope, cams not welded yet, that's #1 on the list. Car is a one-owner (I know the guy), has 125K on the clock, but has been well maintained and not beaten.

I've been in communication with a guy down near Atlanta that's supposed to be a good resource for SHOs, including cam welding, and I'm going to have him go over the car and take care of a few odds and ends on it.

I'll keep you in mind on the parts.:up:

If your talking about the crew from FPS, they do awesome work and have always taken care of me. Good luck with the SHO, just hit me up when you want a list of parts :cool:

I dont know of any headers available for the V-8 SHO that arent a one off hand made piece and the gains werent worth the cost. Any good muffler shop can make you a cat-back exhaust, most V-8 owners also delete the 3rd Cat. I have some pictures of my exhaust that was made for my SHO in my cardomain link in my signature that you can check out. It was made for about $500 from what I remember but it was done in 02 so the price are probably going to be a little more. PM me if you have anymore questions or need some parts:cool:
