Honestly I've been researching the same problem with my 01 cobra. It just started a few days ago (73 thousand miles on engine). Before taking it to the dealer, I drove it around to several mechanics asking questions. I got the normal lifters and wrist pin answer from all. So I took it to the an SVT dealer, and they told me I needed a new engine. They also stated that it would cost more to break it down, find the problem and reassemble it,than purchasing a new one (5,550.00). If I find any information regarding this problem, I'll post it for you.
