I dont think there are too many on the market for sale with the Gen III fitted yet as there arent a lot registered yet.
Ask around and do some research, at the money you are talking you should be able to find a decent well sorted car that could be afew years old and complied with the small block windsor fitted.
Dont be afraid to ask any questions in here as an answer will not be far away.
Gen3 is not a must have, just I know SCT have edit for this motor, they are relatively new and parts are in abundance.
I would prefer a Ford engine but i doubt the Boss would fit in a Cobra, meaning a 351 would be the other option. I have always thought the Ford V8's sound better too.
I guess there is nothing to stop me getting a $40K car and adding my own touches, but i certainly dont have the skill to build it myself.
