I hate to bust your bubble but I dont see the point. Your convertible is every bit as heavy as a cobra.

You keep talking about how slow your vert is, well the IRS rear isnt the best way to go if you are looking for speed.
The IRS gives a nice smooth ride for everyday driving, but on hard launches the wheel hop will rattle your fillings loose.

A have both a 5.0 and a 4.6 cobra and my 5.0 is faster than my cobra with relatively mild mods.

I wish you the best but I still think the good ole' 5.0 push rod power plant is the way to go.
