I have a combination similar to Hal's, with a few more cubes. I think mileage is important (semi-important, anyway) if you take any long trips or day trips. On a 3,000 mile trip last May, my mileage was up around 16 mpg or a little better if I spent most of my time on the highway. Around town I consistently get about 13 mpg. When I had the motor built, I knew I'd have plenty of power, but I wanted a nice, driveable car with decent gas mileage. By "decent", I meant 10 mpg or a little better around town, although if I had a larger fuel tank it would be less of an issue.
