Not Ranked
Well I will point out that the FE (commonly called a big block) started life as a 332 cid, nearly a decade before the small block Ford was designed. The FE was not considered a big block it was just the only engine made for a while. So for those who are hung up on cid, is the 331 FE a small block?
Now the SB Ford was introduced with 221 cid. Then was upped to 260 cid, followed by the 289, and finally the 302. So if you are such a purest on displacement, why are you running 333 cid instead of the 221 that started the whole SB movement? Your 333 cid engine has more cubic inches than the original FE !!! So by your reasoning you have a BB.
