There aren't very many "classic" engines, but certainly the 318 stands
alone as the best engine ever developed. I might rank the 220 slant
six as one and the 220 Silver Diamond International six as another.


Also considered - 327, 350 and the great 564 International/Ford truck
engine along with the 7.3 liter diesel.


I'd thrown in Ford's 260/289/302 as well. The 289 powered many cars,
large and small.


Agreed.


the 390 wasn't bad either. the 351 Cleveland was a good all around
performance engine, and tthe 351 Windsor wasnt' that hot but was a
fairly reliable workhorse.


hmmm, two completely different 351's
