Can't go wrong with LS/VTEC either. My friend just finished building his EG hatch and is running a 10.4 on slicks.
True, true. The thing is that in stock form, the B20 blows. Once you start sleeving the motor and adding internals, it really doesn't matter which engine you start out with since they both can be turned into identical engines. It all really depends on how cheap you can get each motor and how far you are willing to build it.
