And the injectors running at high pressures-

A class action pending on the transmission-

I'd be sticking with the 3.2 six speed personally rather than the hand grenade-

How's those injector pressures and that biturbo RPM? Jesus Ford better stamp out plenty of spare Ranger bonnets :o

I can't get my head around an auto needing 10 speeds in it.

It’s to keep it reving in it peak torque range, I believe.

Given the future emission standards I would've thought it'd be to keep in the rev range of least emission.

Yeah.... I guess.
Geez, I only fitted a 3 speed to the Zephyr for the 1/8th mile tracks and they are nicer on the street.
Would've used an ol 2 speed glide if it was all 1/4 mile.

Yeah.... I guess.Set some new ground... go the 10 speed... much smoother
