Default LS or GSR HELP!!!!

alright...lets see this guy is selling an LS bottom end that claims it is 11:1 compression ratio, new piston, rod and so forth. he wants 600$ for that and he has a 99 civic si head for 500$ so the total for the long block would be $1100. And i found this other guy thats selling a COMPLETE GSR swap for $2200 and its all stock, US spec. Which one should i get? I want to be able to get it BAR'd (emission check) and for it to run right. Has anyone driven an EK with an LS motor in it? does it drive like ****? (thats what i heard) is it true? Which would u personally pick and why?
