    Reliability is directly dependent upon build and tune, tune, tune. I hear so many people in ATL say how unreliable ls/v's are. Why is that in ATL it is unreliable, but they run fine in the rest of the country. I personally am doing a ls/vtec, but my next build will be b20/vtec.

    an Ls or b20/vtec leaking oil or being unrealiable is a USER/BUILDER error... lots of janky people down here.

    GSR all the way if you already have the setup...

    i had no reliablilty issues with my ls/vtec.

    stock block
    gsr head
    type-r valve train
    and DC 4-1 headers

    that setup was redlined everyday for 6-8 months. (with no problem) Then i junked the headers and replaced them with a greddy 18g setup. which also was redlined daily for about a year. (buy redlined i mean 7800 rpms. even though ls bottom ends can not rev that high and still be reliable )

    It never leaked oil or smoked one bit. That is a year and a half of constant redline. I have a few people on IA that can vouch for how harsh i was on the setup! It ran fine till the day i pulled/sold the motor and shell. (sold it to buy a 240, now selling my twoforty to buy another integra lol)

    To all the people that say it is not reliable maybe you should find a new engine builder/buy better quality parts! thats my

    i've always been told ls is better for turbos and gsr is better for all motor so if all motor is your plan then I would say gsr.
