Just the opposite, 84-86 SVO is what you should be looking for, lots of them being parted out. the 84 comes with a 3.45, the 85/86 have the 3.73 both traction locks, and as a bonus your get disc brakes and 5 stud wheels!

Your best bet is a 86-93 8.8 rearend. It is stronger than your 7.5 and is a direct bolt-in. Just leave the quad shocks off of it since you will not have the frame mount for them.
I would add 3.55 is 5 speed or 3.73's if an auto trans to really wake it up.
But you can use any 79-93 Mustang rearend except the 84-85.5 SVO and 93 Cobra. They are 4 wheel disc brake and require brake system modifications.

Go to a large junkyard and ask them to check the Hollander Interchange Manual. It will tell you what other parts will interchange with your 'Stang. Good luck!

yeah you are going to have to use the fox body of rear ends. but if yours came with a V8 you should be ok
