I have always like big blocks, but I am a realist. There is a lot to love about a FE in a Cobra.

Look at Keith Craft's web site to get an idea what a well built FE is going to cost you. Then decide if a 390 (maybe stroked) will suit you or will you need to go with a 428 or 427 to be happy. Maybe you want a big inch stroker (482 or more)? Do you want an original block or will you plunk down the bucks for a new block?

You still have a lot more decisions to make on your engine.
