either of these engines will work well for a cobra.
I have a 5.8 in mine and it has all the power you need
and depending on how it's built is very streetable.

More displacement is almost always better. Carb is MUCH easier and cheaper to get working correctly than EFI, and makes just as much HP. Read a book about rebuilding small block fords, "speed220" on this site has written a good one.
