I'm confused

If it's roush vs anything I'd pass on the roush...

If it is roush 402 vs an FE (from an unknown builder) both in SPFs, that's a little different.

Personally, I'd go for an FE in a cobra almost always over a small block...
But that's only personal preference, and that assuming all else is equal.
Which in this case it seemingly is
I'm guessing a badly put together FE is no more a risky a proposition than a roush.
Do a search (for roush) on this and other forums, and stay away from the marketing hype.

If it's a KC engine that's fitted and sorted, it's likely to be a sound build, but he's not the only one who can build a kick a$$ engine...

Good luck with your search.
