Hmm... It depends on what year SHO since they varied so greatly from 89 to 95. The DMC was basically the same all 3 years.
Both cars have V6 with 5-speed.
Similar wieght distributions, SHO is 400 pounds heavier.
The SHO has 220 horsepower (almost 100 more than the DMC).
The SHO has DOHC 24 valve(from the info I got), whereas the DMC has one can per bank and 12 less valves.
The SHO is about 12 years newer... and a car full of newer parts usually has an advantage (no bearings randomly giving out).
The SHO has a rev limiter and holds the RPMS at 7300 (whereas the DMC can be redlined if not careful).
So, it depends... If it was my DMC versus an SHO in identical condition, then I'd take him
