Default Next project - Blown Saleen or 408 Notch?

Ok so I sold my 88 Gt, now I am looking for another project car. I want to do either of the following:

01 Saleen Mustang Replica (Including the Saleen blower) used as a summer cruiser

1988 Notch (Stroked to a 408 with a C-4 200 shot NOS Carb converted) used as a drag car, nothing else.

What would you guys want?

You know I still might, its a toss up. I know the potential of a cobra is insane, but I really dont think I would need more than 400 hp. Its hard to say. I just LOVE the style of those Saleens over the Cobra. Summer cant come soon enough!
