how much power you looking to push????? RB 20 is good but really tight squeeze, you almost literally need to shoe horn it in. sr is your best bet you can have a 400hp RELIABLE motor with that.
agreed that the sr is probably the best bet. i personally like the sr because its easy to work on and aftermarket support is very good. I would definately choose a K over an sr though due to the torque outcomes.

remember, the KA didnt come turbo from the factory, so if you do turbo it, it will decrease the life and reliablility of the KA. But on the other hand, the SR comes turbo, and is the most reliable turbo engine out there....so SR is the best way to go...most parts available in Toronto too etc....(compared to CA and RB)

you would be leaning more towards the sr, but you should understand the engines boundaries so you know far you can go with each so you can reach your final goals. basically once you have a taste for speed you will want more and if the engine limits you, before having to build or something along those lines you best have made the best engine choice from the begining.
