I told my fiance that we will not get married unless we drive away in the cobra. That date for my wedding is November 6th 2004. I will need all of that time to get my cobra done.

I am looking for an engine right now. I know what I would put in the cobra if price was no option; however, price is ditating a lot of my first build. I am only 30 years old and plan on keeping this car for the remainder of my life. I know that I will put several engines, tranmissions, and rearends in it over my life time.

I have read here that the first six month of owning a cobra, many owner wrap them around a pole because of not being used to that powerful and light of a car. Due to this I am willing to start out mild and work my way to wild.

I have read so many different threads on the best engine, and I am asking everyone the opposite.

WHAT IS THE WORST ENGINE FOR MY COBRA?

Based on
1. price
2. performance
3. obtaining after market parts
4. weight

Thanks,

P.S. I have a C6 transmission with an 8.8 rear end with 3.55 gears (right now)
