The answer is around 8 seconds.
closer to 9 - 9.5
The 3.8 had 160 HP until 1996. They made some changes that allowed it to get 200 HP in 1996. The 3.0 had about 145 throughout it's lifespan.
The 160 HP Taurus should do about 1 second faster to 60, The 3.0 did it about 10.5. The 3.8 should do it in about 9.5
My 3.0L V6 '96 Taurus GL tops out at around 9.2 Seconds I would say late 7's to early 8's. There was never a 3.0L SHO.
Not true. The first and second generation SHO's (87-95 I think) with manual transmission were 3.0's, only a totally different engine than the Vulcan's. Automatics were 3.2's.
.060

060 as a whole number? .060? 0.60?
6000/100
I've seen pistons that were .060" over. Any more than that would probably not last very long.
.060 acres = 2,613.6 square feet.
Bore it out to the maximum "safe" bore (.060" overbore) which is 3.935". Stroke it to 3.25". This is the stock stroke for the 327 engine, which is the only other engine to have the smaller journals. Rod Journals are 2.00", Main Journals are 2.30".
It would probably be close to a 340 as the 340 is the same engine block as the 318. The stock 318ci has a 3.910 in. bore with a 3.31 in. stroke the very same stroke as a 340ci. The stock 340ci has a 4.04 in. bore. The .060 in. over bore would result in a 328ci engine. The formula for this is, 1/2 bore x 1/2 bore x 3.14 x stroke x number of cylinders.
Yes, 060 is greater than 045
