There you go again, like a kid in a lolly shop, quoting all these engines you can get when actually you can't get most of 'em, if you want a street registered Cobra. 5.3, nup not sold here, 7.0 lucky you'll find one from a wrecked HSV that's not worth your right arm so they're as good as not been available. Forget about any supercharged ones, none are sold here! If I used that argument then I'll have a Roush supercharged 5.4 DOHC with over 750hp thanks. All from only 5.4 ltrs. Who needs 7.0 ltrs? 
More importantly, you can have your 600+hp chev cobras but good luck getting the power down

FVP 5.4 DOHC 315kws? Chev needs the cubes, 6.2 ltrs, to match it! 
Progress does march on......
Seriously, is not really the engines as such, it's the packaging. That's the only real reason people are using Chevs. If I was starting my build now I would use one too.
