I would say take the LS if is free. Free stuff = and the more money you will have to do other things with your car!!!!

Dude are you going to be racing alot or more just cruising on the street? If your racing do the b16a if your cruising the b18b or make them both great and turbo either one. Thats what I'm doing.

both are good platforms to start, you shouldn't street race but if you must, either one is a perfect platform. Obviously you won't leave either one stock so take the free motor and make it fast.

i ld say you win either way.....if you like torque build a ls na or turbo. Or if you like to rev high do b16. I would say build an b16 na street monster!!!!

bet a b18 then go ls/v or go turbo many options. B16 is not strong enough in my eyes.
