Well, have it your way, who am I to undermine this latest spin on things. Be sure to give your local grocer's bag boy with chebbie powered cobra a big hug as you've decided to bury the hatchet 
One small step for Evan Almighty, one giant step for chevy powered cobras everywhere.
The SAAC regarding "originals" ...

Moreover, the original Cobras came in as rollers to if I recall with drive train and engine and options installed and could be painted to color and even customized per customer request. Hmmm, sounds erily similar to Continuation Cobras ...

Okay, I buy a 60s barn find 427 now without engine and place a Chevy all aluminium 496 in it. Once I have it, I supply the CSX number... Who sells headers for it?

Cobra engines 427 or 289 did not have CSX #s to my knowledge. Today's new aluminum block Shelbys do, however. Fabricate headers or put in a chevy 427.
Still waiting for the CSX #s of the Cobras original and current production where the owners had enough of a grudge against Cobras and/or themselves to put a Chevy motor in it. Waiting.

That would be the ones in the registry: "Unknown", or similar ;-)

Touché, I see a job for Evan here as he seems to be so concerned about it.
Evan, go bird dog all those "Unknowns" with motor info and report back ASAP!

Don't need to bird dog those Cobras as to what's in them. My point is they are still considered Cobras regardless of current drive train. If you want to maintain historical accuracy we know the type of drive train needed. If not, oh well. Doesn't matter if it's a Cobra to begin with.
Touche' touche'.
