The only differences between a 93 Cobra and the GT engines are the intake, heads, and cam. of course the hp was different to, The Cobra was 235 and the GT was 225 (93 was 205). Pistons and crank are the same.

The newer 4.6 mod motors are the ones with differences.
You also might want to check for roller rockers and 24lb injectors...

For $300 it should have been a complete, ready to run shortblock in good condition. Bare roller blocks are $50-75 around here.
