The 460 based engine is 50% cheaper to build than a similar-power FE. It is also almost 50% heavier. If cost is paramount, go with the 460. If keeping with the spirit of the Cobra concept means anything to you, then go with an FE. Even a 390 built up properly will give you plenty of street horsepower and torque.
