Sinnott gets my vote as the classic Kirby inker, but my fav is the one time (of 2 ever????) that John Severin inked Kirby in Yellow Claw #4. It's one of my favorite Kirbys AND it's one of my favorite Sevs. Totally exquisite. Wish that matchup happened more.

Here's a link with a few samples. The Yellow Claws/Black Knights are not difficult to find in Marvel Essentials reprint form. Here's a link to a few interior examples:

...... a match made in heaven..... two other Kirby inkers that I didn't mention due to such a small sample group were Al Williamson (Race For The Moon) and Wally Wood (Challengers of the Unknown.... fantastic results  GOD BLESS...

Yeah, that Yellow Claw #4 is one of my all time favorites. Looking at those pages gives me tons of pleasure.

Romita? He only inked about a dozen pages of Kirby, pretty much all covers and a lot of those were just partial. I'm not disagreeing that they look nice, but I don't consider him a Kirby Inker.

The cover of Cap #193 alone gets my vote - so iconic.
