I have had one of SAEs 406 engines for two years now and both the engine and everyone at SAE has been outstanding. You'd have to know how much of a hack I am and the kind of help I've required to really appreciate how good the SAE folks are to their Customers.
I think Susan summed it up best - SAE's 406 is the perfect REPLICA engine for your REPLICA cobra. Of course everyone would like to have a 427SO, but for those of us who didn't have that financial luxury (yet, I'm working on it) - the 406 is the best thing going. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks!

PS - NEVER and I repeat NEVER put anything other than black spark wires on your FE, particularly if the wrong color (red) wires have poor boots and shock the heck out of Bill when he's nice enough to help.
PSS - I still can't find the key to my hood that Bill hid. I have some new things I want to try out with the engine
