Yes. Not only do we need to know what direction you are going but where you live. If you are, for example, in Australia, a Coyote may be among your top choices...

TassieCobra,
Your best route for deciding on engine selection is to talk to your local Cobra community. They will tell you what you can and can't do legally.
I'm starting to feel like an advocate for the Victorian Cobra Club here - your best bet is to (if you're not already a member) go to a club meeting and talk to people who have started down the same path as you. Theirs would be the best advice you can get if you want something you can drive legally on the road.

Cheers!
Glen

Glen is correct,

Your DMV will be a deciding choice on what you can do to get it titled. Local members can give you an insight on what you can expect with your choice of engine.

Good luck!
