Both brands make fairly solid internals. It really comes down to personal preference, which gun do you like more? If you're looking for an SVD with a folding stock, google SVD-S.
If it were up to me, I'd buy the SVD if I wanted a good looking wall hanger and the SL8 (or any other AEG) if I wanted to game the gun. The length of the gun typically doesn't make a huge difference on accuracy or reliability, most AEGs run v2 Gearboxes anyways and you could even use an Mp5 as a DMR if you were so inclined. Long guns tend to be cumbersome and restrict movement, often forcing you to change your sling configuration depending on what you're doing -- unless of course you're one of those tall 6'5+ guys.
