Quite a few guys are running that 4.6 motor down here. Unfortunately it doesn't meet the latest emissions requirements. People are switching to the newer Aussie version which is the 5.4 bottom end with the 32 Valve heads on it. The only problem with them in a Cobra is they are a very wide motor and difficult to squeeze into the engine bay.
Cheers
