It is, but not in a live axle 98 Mustang :d ontknow:

For someone who likes to do track events that involve corners, I would never guessed you were thinking about something like this....

I'd get a 98 Camaro with the LS1 before I got a 98 Mustang with the DOHC V8 :d ontknow:

Was more referring to the V6 Mustangs/Camaro with the 300hp V6. My point was they are nearly 3x the price.

Those things can be very fast with the right setup. They had 30 years to develop it.

Don't need a 400hp car or want to pay those prices. Also the engine is very similar between the two,except for the supercharger obviously

I think it looks better, but hey, I'll never own one. I'd get a LS1 WS6 before I'd ever get a Cobra
