    SVOs had a lot of potential, however other than 4V Cobras, the new 3Vs out do the prior gen 2v's by leaps and bounds. Not my opinion either, hard facts. Nothing beats a piped 2v though for sound however.


    BTW Im reffering to a stock for stock comparison

    i almost bought a older 5.0 one time...then i looked at gas prices and said...im gunna stick with Honda until i make enough money to have a toy

    if I had extra cash I would still get one and start to fix it up. cheap as hell to make fast. and shit, pretty much anyone can work on one, even my mom knows how and shes dumb as a bad of rocks...

    I can't wait to get a 5.0 foxbody someday. Fucking gas prices......

    I'd prefer an SVO if I could get my hands on one though.

    acccctually. the 5.0's get fairly decent gas mileage if you have one hooked to a T5. i have a buddy that gets 18-22 out of his and its mildly built.

    That still doesn't make it good gas mileage.

    My dad's 540 camaro can get like 2mpg, which is bad compared to the 4mpg of the chevrolet 572 crate motor... that doesn't make 4mpg good.

    18-22 would actually be tolerable for me. I get 16 on average out of my current vehicle, so I could definitely deal with that. But I want to save money from now on so no v8's for me.

    yea they really arent bad. i hear tell if you do a stock 4v cobra motor in a foxbody you can get upwards of 30 because its just so damn lite. but thats just rumors i hear. id have to see that to believe it.

    The difference is in the exhaust note is negligible in that they both sound really good with decent exhaust.

    Point taken though.

    32 mpg...still ftw

    You can make a four cylinder mustang fast, but why would you want too?

    The 2.3 is one of the most uninspiring asthmatic sounding motors ever built. I spent a lot of time around them, they're great for getting around town, and reasonably reliable but they're not fun.
