The king in the late 1960's was the 427 SOHC engine, nothing could touch it in Top Fuel, Funny Car or any other racing venue it was in up until it was outlawed.So as far as that goes, the FE 427 SOHC engine was the greatest 1960' engine ever built.

However it might be debated, if Ford had put them in enough passenger vehicles I believe that the 427 SOHC engine would be the engine to beat till this day and we all would be talking about how Chrysler had a HEMI engine way back in the old days...
