The Ford Mustang SSP is a lightweight police car package that was based on the Ford Mustang and produced by Ford between 1982-1993. [1] The car was meant to provide a speedier option for police departments in lieu of other full sized (and heavier) sedans on the market at the time.
The third-generation Mustang was manufactured and marketed by Ford from 1979–1993, using the company's Fox platform and colloquially called the Fox body Mustang.During its third generation, the Mustang evolved through several sub-models, trim levels, and drivetrain combinations during its production and seemed destined for replacement with a front-wheel drive Mazda platform.
Ford offered a performance head that was a stock part on 1993–1995 Mustang Cobra models and pre-1997 ½ Ford Explorers and Mercury Mountaineers equipped with the 5.0 L engine called the GT-40 head (casting ID F3ZE-AA). In mid-1997, the Explorer and Mountaineer 5.0 L heads were revised and renamed GT40P.
The result was the continuation of the existing Mustang while the Mazda MX-6 variant had a last-minute name change from Mustang to Probe and was released as a 1989 model. The Mustang received a major restyling for 1987, including the interior, which carried it through the end of the 1993 model year.
The 2010 Mustang GT added a more powerful version of the 4.6 L V8 seen in 2005–2009 Mustang GTs. The Mustang GT's revised V8 produced 315 bhp (235 kW) at 6000 rpm and 325 lb⋅ft (441 N⋅m) of torque at 4250 rpm. The 5-speed manual and automatic transmissions offered with the updated V8 continued unchanged from before.
The 4.9L V8 (marketed as a 5.0L by Ford) made its return in 1983, alongside the debut of the first and only four-cylinder Thunderbird. Featuring a variant of the Mustang SVO drivetrain, the 2.3-liter Thunderbird Turbo Coupe was designed as the high-performance flagship of the model line for the entire generation.
