most powerful cobra engine

realistically, what is the best engine to go with as far as horsepower goes with. lets get creative with this thread, NA combos, forced induction, nitrous, whatever. what can honestly fit under the hood of a cobra without spending 50k on an engine? i was thinking in the 700-1100hp range.

That would have to be Bill Well's new motor he's putting in his Superformance...

What we know is-

604 ci in a Ford block
SCJ Alloy ported and polished heads
Twin (as in TWO) Paxton superchargers mounted down low in front of the motor on the front cross member.
Twin Barry Grant Dominator carbs mounted in front of the superchargers on either side of the radiator
Nitrous system on top of that to act as an intercooler effect
18 pounds of boost
6.9:1 compression

HP? He will not bother to speculate until the Dyno proves the numbers.
