You V8 guys are the most self centered bunch of dumb ass's aren't you? we are not talking about just 5.0's we talk about chevy's, dodges, etc.

Im sorry but to all the guys with turbo 4's, yall talk about how much less it is to get in to low et's but seriously! I would much rather spend the extra cash and look GREAT in a newer v8 that looks and rides much better than the 4cyls... I mean IMO they look like dog poo compared to 03-04 termies or any post 1994 stang! So please when you talk about spending cash and all that on your rides please take into accout looks and ride quality also and not just performance!
Ummm.... last I cked the 4 cylinders weigh less, and the SVO is still the best handeling mustang out there (stock for stock )
Also check out the converted 94 on TF
Also
11's 4 cylinder - 27-29 MPG
11's V8...(non LSx) - 11 MPG (If lucky )
4>8
turbo>N/A
I get roughly 18 city and 27 highway, good enough for me! I didnt get in to the go fast game just to B!TCH about mpg. And im pretty sure my mach when it was bone stock would've taken a turn just as good if not way better than any 4 cyl! How about this! Post up a pic. of your ride and ill post up one of mine when it was stock!
I can gaurantee that My stock suspension SVO will easily outhandle your mach 1. The svo's came stock with tubular and wider geometry front a arms with adjustable Koni red struts as well as a wider stanced rear end with adjustable koni shocks/ quad shocks. Plus the weight distribution is almost 50% front to 50% rear. And I can get pics if you want me too, the svo is one of the best looking mustangs ever made.

Right! Thats why its still in production!? Look i've had enough laughs (this was even better than debating with ricers), i think ima just walk away! You're right! The svo and any turbo 4 are gods and can take down ANYTHING! They're pretty much the best mustang ever made! <----Copy and paste that, put it in bold, go beat off to it, whatever! Have a nice day!

Guess you never saw the cops episode where a 5.o was chasing a turbocoupe and the cop says something along the lines of you can't outrun a 5.0, then proceeds to get walked by the turbocoupe. Oh and as far as I know they aren't making a bunch of mustang now including your all mighty mach 1, the terminator cobra, etc.

My favorite Mustang of all time is the 1991 Mustang GT with red interior and red exterior and of course the legendary 5-o. There is a reason the cops used 5-o coupes and not 4 cyclinder turbos as their police intercepter....
Mustangs are all about American bad ass detriot muscle, always have been. If you guys prefer the 4 bangers why not try out a Ford Focus? But then again I also think v6 mustangs are a damn shame,especially when its some middle aged guy in a convertable v6...but then again I think the v6 was made for highschool/college girls and maybe mid life crisis moms.
No hate intended 
Yeah there is it was less expensive

hey this thread really show how stupid smepeople are, im a v8 guy, and soon to be turbo 4 guy, but if you build your turbo 4 and i take my slightly built 460 we'll run the same 1/4 time, and if i build mine there is no Z06 or AWD that will compete even with a s/c throw in....now for road racing and Auto-X hands down goes to the 4's but it take very little for you guys to compete with v-8's and that's from a v-8 guy...and anyone that the deciding factor comes down to looks is a ****.....i like the ugly ass rusted out beater that slams an 08 viper on any course or even an exotic

I can gaurantee that My stock suspension SVO will easily outhandle your mach 1. The svo's came stock with tubular and wider geometry front a arms with adjustable Koni red struts as well as a wider stanced rear end with adjustable koni shocks/ quad shocks. Plus the weight distribution is almost 50% front to 50% rear. And I can get pics if you want me too, the svo is one of the best looking mustangs ever made.
Lets get down to buisness here.
Wider geometry? Wider than what? The rear axle is the same as an 84-85 Lincoln Mark VII. The Mark VII is 1.25" wider per side in the rear than a fox mustang. The Mach 1 uses a rear that is 1" wider per side. Now factor in wheel offset. The SVO wheels are heavily offset so the wheels dont hang out of the wheel well. Use ANY off the shelf mustang wheel, and it will stick out. While the axles are wider on the SVO, the track width is not. Now, for the control arms, they are the same length as the Mach 1. End of story. So what advantage do you have in width? Absolutely none, and youre still most likely at a disadvantage.
Koni reds? Better shocks and struts yes, but most here wont realize that Mach 1's come with either Bilstein or Tokico's, and better spring rates than the SVO. There isnt much advantage over a stock SVO and stock Mach 1. Comes down to a drivers race easily.

So he has $32k left for mods
SVO will be in the 9's if not 8's termi.... 11's maybe?

The Machs also came with stiffer sway bars and more weight, And even with the offset on the wheels the width of the wheel base is still slighty larger and the whoe front geometry is different from the k- member to the a-arms, the wheels sit farther forward on the svo's than the stock mustang suspension. So yes total wheel base is longer and helps handling. Many people on the svoca web site autocross their svo's a are always beating later model more powerful mustangs.
Now I don't want to sound like a bench racer, I would love a mach 1 if someone wanted to give me one (too poor to buy one) and I have had a full bolt on 86 gt so I also have had the v8 part of the equation also. I just hate to see people who know nothing about what they are talking bout say something stupid and ignorant.
edit: SVO's also came with special springs made for habdling much like the bullit/mach 1's

This thread does not deliver...
A bunch of 4cyl guys high 5ing eachother
Meh do what you guys want, everyone is different but if i wanted to be fast in a 4cyl i sure wouldnt pick an SVO to do it with, you guys all argue that of for the price of a Cobra you could put that money in a SVO and be in the 9's blah blah blah.. how many SVO's on this forum are in the 9's?... how many are in the 11's for that matter?..... pulley and exhaust on a Cobra or Exhaust and a cam on an Ls1 and bye bye.. sorry guys

i would lock and get rid of this thread but it seems to provide something to do for a lot of people busy with not doing anything to their cars. 4 bangers to v8's is like comparing oranges to grapefruits: it's stupid.

Simple Fact, 4 cylinder DD in the 8s or 9's is doing ti with only half the block
V8's have more displacment, so its easier to get fast 1/4 mile times

ok, hellion, you show me how the hell you can get 450hp out of a stock 302 with just $1000. Sh!t, you show me how to get 450 out of a three valve with just a grand. sounds impossible to me.
The reason this thread was started was to compare a stock 2.3 turbo and a stock v-8, then throw the same amount of money at them and see who had the faster car. Why you guys started the whole 35k car wiht 5k bolts on will get whooped by the 5k car with 35k bolts on is beyond me. I mean no sh!t!!! btw.
I got a 5oh, cant beat the torque it delivers. I got a 2.3t and i absolutly love the feel when the turbo kicks in. But the 2.3 has about 280 and the 5.0 was dynoed at 290. They both have about the same amount into them.
I will never argue which one is better. the 2.3 block can handle more power, but the heads suck ass. Then again a mod block is almost indestructable. All engines ahve there ups and downs. It doesn't make sense to compare them unless you put down some guidelines, like two stock motors throw 5k at them in the same type of mods and see which one ends up making more power. Otherwise, its pointless
