Quotes from the Planet Cobra website: 
"Every Cobra has a correct date-coded engine block or aluminum Shelby engine" 
" In fact, our turn-key operation makes it easier than ever for you to own an original Shelby Cobra CSX4000 with the options you want!" 
"When the component body arrives at Planet Cobra from the Shelby Factory, our world-class technicians go to work to breathe life into your Cobra with the high performance engine/drivetrain of your choice." 
 
Something doesn't add up.

 I suspect the web site is old, and maybe Stephen will pipe in here but there is an indication that the California SB100 rule enforcers are no longer allowing even a division of a seller to do the power train install, and that seems to be what the disclaimer in the post is complying with.
