Explain to me what's the better on and off the track, what engine is better to use as daily driver car, and what not to use at all.

You are confusing two different things:
The term small block/big block is in reference to the motor size only when there are options. For example, the 4.6 V-8 might be viewed as a small block and the 5.4 as a big block.
Now, short block/long block refers to a motor that is pulled and how complete it is. A long block is fully assembled with oil pan and everything.
So, you could have a short block, big block. A long block, short block, or a big block, long block etc....
or did you know this?
