Well guys which should i get? I love the 5.0s but is the 4/ Turbo worth it? I have a long time to make this decsion since i'll be in Germany for the next 3 years. Also what times due they turn in the 1/4 mile and their mpg Numbers. thanks
id go with the svo, ive had both and car for car the svo handles better, brakes better, gets better mpg, and is about as fast as a stock 5.0, and can be easily modded, add a fmic, a boost controller, a full 3" exhaust, cai and really beat the snot out of a basic bolt on 5.0, those cars have a vert tough bottom end, and come with either 3.45-3.73 gears, I would try to find a 86, this way it already has the quad shock, and the 35injectors, and the pe computer.
We had an SVO run with our group. NO idea on the mods, but on Drag Radials he went 12.5 @ 108. He drove to and from the track and the car looked and sounded very nice.
The 5.0 will feel and sound better (personal preferance of course) but the SVO and turbo 4 have their own appeal. I say look for the best deal. If the cars a V8, get a V8, if the cars a turbo 4, mod the turbo 4.
