As much as I love both engines, in my opinion, they are both in the correct vehicle; I don't think I would want either vehicle if the engines were swapped. The rough 438 would be a no go in nearly any other vehicle, but for me, it is uniquely suited to the period character of what I want a cobra to be. The blown coyote is smooth with awesome power, suited for a/c, power steering, abs, etc. There if you need it, relatively hidden if you don't.
Sounds like a great build. Aren’t the P38 the Kaase heads? If so I hardly ever come across a thread where someone used those in their build. What kind of power did it make?

That Kaase crew puts out some great stuff. Their former employee Greg Brown broke off and is offering his own Hemi style windsor head. I don’t know much about the product but it looked promising.
