LSV would put down more numbers than the b16. Plus you already got the block you said. Up to you though

Da is light enough to enjoy a well set up b16 well. I say put the best motor in that
you can, consistently that meets your budget. I guess that would depend on how
you intend to budget your resources. If it were me and I needed to ask this question
I would put the B16 in there and get it working well. Run that for a while, however
build up the LS block on the side, get another head and swap the longblock once
it's ready. It would all come down to what goals you are trying to reach. We have
been over this before, however there might still be some folks willing to approach
your question in detail.

Good Luck,

Mike

He said OEM internals, not stock internals. I thought those terms were pretty much self-explanitory.
