Default ls-vtec all-motor is it worth it?

What's up? Ls-v, is it worth it? I've been doing research I'm hearing Ls-v is reliable, it has both torque and hp. However, I'm hearing "if it's all that good honda wouldn't do it in the first place," and "it's shitty! (whose had an ls-v)"

210whp Daily Driven on a very mild tune. Any motor can be reliable, if it is built correctly and with quality parts. But for your question, the people who love it, probably fall in the same boat as me, Built correctly with quality parts and done right. People who hate it, probably took a old used ls block, threw a B16 head on it that they got for cheap, didn't take anything apart and clean it, just threw it in the car and ran on it. That's just my input, So if you do it right and done with quality, yes it can be a very reliable motot. Good Luck.
