These cars are a blast! Given your size I would also look at Backdraft cars with the Vintage Motorsport guys out in Conneticut.....they have more experience with mod motor equipped replicas than anyone. I have a 427 SB with side pipes and really enjoy it. If I ever pull the trigger on a second cobra it will be a roadster with under car exhaust and no roll bar. I believe a coyote or 4.6 Terminator motor would be awesome. If I was pulling the trigger on a mod motor I would go ahead and go with the supercharger and just keep the boost down until you ever desired more power. You would have incredible driveability, great mpg and unlimited power if you ever desired to use it.
Oh and remember the only reason to get a corvette is NOT so it will be comfortable and have air conditioning. If you want that get a Lexus. Only get the vette if you want to look like your going through a mid-life crisis and looking for a way to buy something that is going to depreciate and look like something a stripper from south Louisana would drive after they release the next body style. With all that being said I actually like z06's but haven't been able to bring myself to seriously considering one.
