I believe in the scheme of things it's mostly a toss up in values as it is now. The thing to really look at is the re-sale value of the type of car you want. To group all Cobras together is a mistake. For example what about a 427SO Factory Five car? HMMMMMM,,,,,,.
Semantics also change when future speculating about cars. For example what would happen if cheap 427SO blocks become available? Such a thing happened with the Chrysler hemi a while back you know.
No, the right answer is to first figure out what you want "out" of a Cobra. The re-sale stuff will take care of itself later. But as it is right now, things really are close. Funny how the market evens things out in the long haul.
Bandit 1 - I too would not "race" a SO/FE block. Same can be said about a 385/DOVE-A 4-bolt block. Just not worth the chance of destroying them.
They say a fool and his money soon part. Commentary on the current Cobra market.
