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.

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
