Default Supercharged Unique Cobr

To any Club Cobra members,

My name is Chad and I'm a new member to Club Cobra. I am also new to the Cobra Kit car scene but have always loved Cobras. I don't currently own a kit cobra but am strongly considering buying a fully "turn key" 427 model from Unique Motors. I really want a barn burner in the quarter mile so I'm thinking about a big block (5 speed) with a centrifugal supercharger. However the engine builder is recommending a naturally aspirated 428 FE block (converted to 4 bolt mains) with about 500 horsepower as he says the extra power from a supercharger wouldn't help all that much because the car is difficult to hook up off the line. Any comments or thoughts would be appreciated.
