The SVO is the best handling car ford ever made (with a 4 cylinder turbo)

I would NOT do the trade, it has lost all its value the moment he took the 4 cylinder turbo out and put in a common 5.0.

Also the 5.0 and 2.3 shared the same bodies, but once again he killed its value by putting a areo front end on....

My addvice, RUN AWAY!!!!!

I'm not quite sure what you're asking but all of the 79-04 mustangs have basicly the same frame with differences in motors and suspension and a few minor differences

Unless you really want a 5.0 I would pass it up.  It isn't hardly an SVO anymore without the 2.3T or SVO front end.
