Ford Thunderbird Engines and Transmissions
A typical Ford Thunderbird engine in this Coupe generation is a gasoline unit with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The 4.9 AT is the larger example for relaxed highway pull, while the 3.8 AT and 3.3 AT powertrains keep the drivetrain lighter for daily commuting.
