If you really want a torque strap in your Cobra, you're going to have to do some fabbing because you're not going to find an "off the shelf" bracket that fits perfectly from your block to your frame. That said, here are some points to consider:

1). If you run your torque strap to the back of your aluminum head, you're likely to damage it.

2). If you run it to the front of your block, you're likely to experience unusual torque steer. Consider placing it more between the engine and transmission.

3). The "bolt through the left mount" trick has been used successfully for decades, and the original drag racers in the early 60's (who are now well in to their 70's) report on www.Fordfe.com that that was all they used on their original drag cars and they rarely broke a mount.

Summit and Jegs have suitable torque straps to get you well on your way to crafting one that fits your car -- and I think it would be about a half day job to fab something nice. Here's a pic:
