You need to know what you are using cobra for, street, drag or track?

Dwight is correct, brakes, tires and then engine are the factors and order you go.

I have a 347 Stroker that has 375 HP to the tires. My cobra weighs a hair over 2000 pounds, don't ask what it weighs when I am in it! I have Wilwoods that stop on a dime. I track my car with good old fashion Goodyear BillBoards. They stick great. I run my car on the street with goodyear GT II. I don't drive hard on the street.

Craft, Lykins and Levy all make sweet engines. Just ask lots of questions.
