That’s a very good solution for the intake manifold, I’ll keep note of that, thank you. I’m still very hooked on building a 4V, not only for revving capabilities but as something I can do for fun.IMO it seems to me that one of the "issues" that you are overlooking is the need for a Mustang specific intake manifold along with the other "associated" parts.
Here's one idea that may help you to get around the need for a Mustang intake manifold. Especially since you would like to supercharge anyway. Kill two birds with one stone!

Don't loose site of the fact that you are building a 4V DOHC that's NOT a real Cobra bottom end. This should be factored in when considering the boost levels to shoot for. IMO they should be minimal to keep your project together.
I have to agree that a better bank for the buck is to supercharge to motor that you already own. With the correct kit you could be driving your project after a weekend's work instead of gathering parts for year(s) and thinking about it.
Would 03/04 cobra forged internals bolt to a Teksid?IIRC, the biggest change you have to consider is changing the pistons out. Past that, your stock bottom end won't handle tons of boost so you would probably be better off building a short block with the correct pistons and a stout rod and crank combo.
The stock Mark viii bottom end isn't that strong, iirc. The block is a teksid though so it's potential is huge.
