Default Which engine swap is best to beat LS1 engines?

In other words, which is the best for boosting? I imagine that the GSR B18C1 is best due to parts available? Or should I go the H or K route? Could you kill an LS1 in the 1/4 with out forced induction with say a 220hp K20A2? What is good here? Any vids?

bench racing FTL. the LS1 owns you in so many aspects, like, being RWD is one, more bottom end torque is another. the LS1 seems to be quite the motor. i dont think you should ever build your car to beat something specific like that. just build it and have fun.

Or turbo a b16 and run 35 psi. Once you blow it rebuild it and do it again.

just build any engine that u kan afford, maybe a ls vtec, on boost and u should be about to beat them, i have a stock b20b on boost with an SI tranny and i murder them left and right, just make sure when u build it, that its done right and that its tuned right

My brother and I in my brothers h22a hatch hung with a newer Camero SS that was slightly modified. BONE stock jdm h22a with a ebay special intake(made for a acura legend) and s2000 exhaust.

Not bad ehh?
