Everybody has an opinion based on experience or bias. I hate a Ford....but their 300 six is one of the best engines ever made.
Toyota"s 22R four cylinder is tough as nails.
Chrysler never made a bad V8, so far as I am concerned. Not always the fastest...but extremely reliable and trouble free. No other maker in the sixties could touch the legendary 426 Hemi..they tried, they came close, but no cigar. To this day...rail dragsters still run a form of the Hemi engine...thanks to the likes of Keith Black and Ed Pink....and those that followed after them.
Small block Chevies are cheap and easy to milk power from...the design dates from 1955....in the small block world, Chevy rules.
The Buick engineers created a work of art in the 3.8 V6....powerful and tough, they run forever.
The old slant sixes were the same way.
Some designs...regardless of who makes them, stand heads above the rest.
Back to the 318.....a 327 will run off and hide from it. But, the old 318 will get down on it"s knees and pull like a Trojan when the 327 is gasping for air. It"s all in the stroke and heads. And hence, where the power band is made. An example is the 426 hemi....you ever see a factory installation in a truck? Useless as t!ts on a boar hog in that application. The old 413 on the other hand was a brute in a pull.

The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
