     The car you are referring to is not exactly a Mustang, a Mustang
specially modified by Caroll Shelby and called a Shelby GT 350. The
original motor in this car was not a 305, but a 289 ci V-8 that put
out 306 horsepower.   In addition, Shelby modified the suspension
to allow the car to hang in the corners with the 'Vettes.
In all fairness to the SVO, the Shelby was an exceptional machine and 
the SVO would probably fair a lot better against the plain Mustang GT with
its 271 HP 289 and mushy suspension. As an additional note:
a guy here has a black SVO and it sure is a nice looking car.
