Default b20/b16 v-tec head vs. b18/b16 vtec head

I know this is a popular question and i have done a lot of research but havent fouind what im lookin for as far which would last longer and i like rpms. I want to do a swap and maybe 7-8lbs boost later on. which set up would be best stock for stock. the b20 with a b16 vtec head or a b18 with b16 vtec head? Surely apreciated.

Both of them. That way you have a spare for when you blow one up. I always have had a second motor.

the b20 would be the better way to go cause when ever you do ls vtec you lose take off but gain top end.I dont know about you but i like bottom end power so even if you put the vtec head on the b20 bottom end you still have torque........torque gets you off the line compression gets you down the road...........an boost is a plus
