Would have been interesting in 1966-1970 if Shelby had the vision as to the interest in his Cobra .. and started to sell "turnkey minus" packages .. leaving it up to the buyer to install the motor of his choice. Probably would have seen some 327 and 409 powered cobras at that time. Today not everybody who buys a cobra body is necessarily trying to replicate a 65 vintage car.
I personally don't like chevy motors in anything but a chevy. Was at an antique car auction and was looking at a spectacular restoration of a 1939 Packard. Two tone paint, white wall tires, original .. restored dash, steering wheel, upholstery. Opened the hood and low and behold an Edelbrock intake and 350 Chevy. Ouch .. totally ruined the car in my opinion.
