If you are in the Cincinnati area drive seven hours South to Gadsden Alabama and visit Unique Motorsports. They have several cars that you can sit in. I'm sure they can take you for a ride.
With an FE you can install a aluminum intake, heads and water pump to save 150 lbs.
Unique has IRS rear end a big plus for some people.
I had a 500 hp fuel injected 347 and it was fast. I put 42,000 on that car. Loved that car and could go anywhere in it. I had the padding reworked in the seat so I could take long trips. Most Cobra seats are bad.
I drove a 408 W with 530 hp in a B&B for several thousands of miles. It was a great driving car. And fast. Well, any Cobra with 300 hp is fast.
I have driven a couple of Unique's with 427 FE 620 hp. They sound great, Very fast. I didn't feel a heavy front end like most talk about.
I suggest you ride in a small block Cobra and a FE before you decide.
We had a guy that was undecided about the motor and hp he wants in his new Cobra. I took him for a ride in the green Unique with the 620 hp FE. After the ride he said a 400 hp Coyote would be enough.
Buy the motor you want and remember you can always add hp later.
I started with 250 to 300 hp and worked my way up to 500. It gave me something to do in the winter and I didn't kill my self the first week.
You have to learn how to drive a Cobra. They are a different car.
Remember A Cobra is not for everyone.
