This was rehashed a number of times before on this board. From my admittedly biased view, I recognize that the Chevy SB is a "great" engine design, ...different of course from the Porsche flat six, ...but an elegantly simple design nonetheless. Car and Driver magazine seems to think so too when both motors were voted among the 10 best ever.
The Chevy has a short skirt / short deck design employing thin-wall casting techniques...pretty nifty around 1955 when they first appeared.
