I think another factor related to small block versus big block is availability. When I was first looking to build a cobra it was difficult finding a big block, while at the same time I was tripping over small blocks.

Regarding mileage, there are probably several factors that come into play. One factor may be that people find them to be less comfortable and more difficult to get in and out of than their daily driver. Weather tends to be a factor for some people, and still others really only wanted one to say that they heave one.

I drive mine as much as I can, it is a fun drive. It helps that my kids are out of the house, not a very practical family car...
