For starters, you can take a look at
Analysis of SHA-1 in Encryption Mode,
Helena Handschuh, Lars R. Knudsen, Matthew J. Robshaw
http://www.gemplus.com/smart/r_d/publications/pdf/HKR01sha.pdf
and
Cryptanalysis of Block Ciphers Based on SHA-1 and MD5,
Markku-Juhani O. Saarinen
www.tcs.hut.fi/~mjos/doc/shaan.ps
which look at the SHA-1 compression function as a block cipher.
There have also been results on MD4 and MD5, some of which
can clarify things about the design of SHA-1. Also look at the
attack on SHA-0.
Basically, the advantage of using SHA-1 is that it has been around
for a while and hasn't gotten broken yet.
