Default SI or GSR

I Have A LS Motor And I Am Wanting To Put A Vtec Head On It. My Problem Is I Dunno If I Should Go With A SI Head Or A GSR Head. I Have Heard That SI Flow Better. But Everyone I Know Has The LS/GSR Swap. Any Help Would Be Great Thanks

The differences between the two are nearly negligible.

Cheaper one is the one I would get. Plus with the GSR, you already have a pool of knowledge on your friends.

A GSR head has a smaller cumbustion chamber. You will have a slightly higher cr
but the flow differenece is so small. they are both great heads in my opinion and a gsr head has a little more aggresive cams stock. but a gsr has the bypass valves so need a p72, the si has a better intake mani for high RPM. (im not posative on all my info im not 100 percent just trying to help)

Well Since The GSR Cam Is Alittle More Aggresive Then Why Couldnt You Put The GSR Cam In The SI Head. The Reason I Say That Is B/C I Am Trading For A SI Head.
