Default Help me decide LS/Vtec or Build my b16??

Hi,
I'm in a dilema i can't decide which way i want to go i was dead set on going high comp b16 with like a 75 shot of nitrous but my friend today got me into thinking about the LS/Vtec with nitrous also in both cases the head will be built....

the b16 will be forged pistons ,rods, and etc...

the LS/vtec would be forged rods but only CTR pistons and the etc.....


help me decide please

my main goal is 13's all motor
then 12's on nitrous

EDIT: BTW this is on a DA

How much do you want to spend?
How fast do you plan to spin?

Ls Vtec but if you want to rev that high make sure it's built compltely from the Crank up, those cranks were not made to spin that high.

Not one vote for built B16, i guess that should narrow your choices down...
