Default What is the best way to get into the 11's?

As i am scouring the net to find the right manufacturer of cobra to buy, ive made a list of all of the things i want to have in my cobra. One of the biggest things is that i want it to be able to run 11's flat. I still cant decide whether or not to go auto or manual tranny. I know the auto will give me more consistant times, as well as run a little quicker. I want to stay small block, so what is a horse power number i should try and achieve to put a cobra replica car in the very low 11's? What cubic inch displacement would be a good one to have? Stroked or not? I am totally new to ford motors, seeing ive always been a die hard Chevy man. Will 600 hp be enough? Would a Supercharged motor be very reliable? What are your thoughts to get into the 11's? Also, i was looking at different cobras and love the look of this one i came across. Can someone tell me the manufacturer name?
thanks all.....
