I need help on what motor to get.. .?

I was thinking about getting a D16Y8 and doing a sleeve kit and good internals so I can turbo it but then I was thinking LS block with a B18 head.. But with that I have to worry about a higher theft rate... But it would give me more power.... someone please help.

GSR is the way to go , might cost a bit more, but worth it in the long run!

D16y8's are easier and cheaper to build... you can fully build and turbo one completely for a fraction of a motor swap. And make alot more power than a motor swap! If its tuned right.
