I haven't seen anyone weeping at car shows. But BBF's do lend an air of authenticity when installed in big block bodies, if that stuff matters to you. And from my own personal experience, big block Cobra bodies with big block engines appear to gather more spectators than other Cobras at car shows, if that stuff matters to you.

If authenticity and spectators don't matter to you, but cost does matter, then small block all the way.
