Not Ranked
A small-block section is surely warranted. I'm sure small blocks will forge ahead in popularity for Cobra use simply because of the availability of parts compared to the FE engine. I see the popularity of the small block holding up because the sales figures (royalties) of my book, "How to Rebuild Your Small-Block Ford" by HPBooks, continue to look good after 23 years. And I suspect you can attest to the fact that the FIA289 Cobra is gaining in popularity, i.e., sales. This allows owners maintain their car as a true replica with an engine that doesn't cost a fortune to build and maintain.
