Hey guys, a guy is selling a EA SVO that Im slightly interested in, but before I go crazy I would like to know what made an SVO what it is?
From memory it was the following (expand with detail if you like): 16" SVO rims two tone paint badges (woot!) Interior Where there any powertrain mods? The guy has put an EF engine in, so if SVO's had cams then I guess ill find out the hard way if its got it. I also remember someone saying that they had a unique extractor system, but I cant find any info on that. Also does anyone have a rough idea of build numbers? this one is a Ghia, I think there were s pack versions aswell. So, for future reference if anyone has any info on EA SVO's then dump it in here :hihi:

they had genie extractors in them, and stock cams maybe because when i changed Gunn's one there was no stampings on the back indicating it wasnt anything special. maybe it was a billet cam? who knows. his car got 120 at the rears stock so maybe there different. they also had bilstein shocks, different sway bar, and other stuff, im sure Al will tell you the rest ;)

This is all the stuff that made an SVO what it is. It could have been optioned with some or all of the stuff on this list. Buy one! Its the sweetest car I have ever driven. |
