Default Which swap?

It's going to be my daily driver, but I also participate in 1/4 mile races. Wonder what would be a better choice for a pocket size of 10Gs? Help me out with price-wise with your choice please. Thanks.

EDIT: I'm dropping it in a 5th gen EG, aiming for 11's or less.

h22 with Fi , no replacment for displacement....

since most h22as run mid-high 13's stock in a EG, add a turbo to that and you can do easy 12's, high 11's......

plus since all the weigh is in the front it aids in traction

Default what about price?

Price-wise, should all be done, any estimates on the total cost?

I've read somewhere along the tread and found out that 1st and 2nd gear of LS and GSR are the same. Would it be the same if I use GSR tranny with LS final drive? And if anyone knows a good and cheap place for a complete GSR, please let me know.

you will not want a ls tranny on the street. if you are pushing around 300 hsp to the wheels, a ls tranny will only slow you up. if your pushing 400+, thats a different story.
