Do You Think Having A Non-Ford Engine Is Wrong ?

[FUNFER2]

I hear from mostly non-Cobra owners, that having anything but a Ford engine in a Cobra is wrong. I even saw a Hemi in one. For the most part, I agree, but what ever gets your rocks off.

I feel the same with Hot Rods, but there's something different with Cobras, but don't know
why ?

I could not put a Chevy, MOPAR, Pontiac, BMW or,.....Ferrari, in my Cobra. Even if given to me.

Is it wrong, no,.... just not me.

I almost wish I could, like say a crate 502 or like I built many years ago with my Pro-Street Camaro, a 468 Ratt, only because,....of price vs a FE motor.

A 600 HP Chevy done my way....$10,000

A 600 Ford FE, done my way,....$18,000

Anyway, back to my point. How do you feel about a non-Ford engine in your Cobra ?

Even to a point of the original cars, the small block to 427FE or 428FE only ?
No modern Ford engines either ?
