x2....you should also consider the L28et. My stock bottom end holds up 22+psi in 280zxt with no problems.

2JZ hands down. Nothing else up there you can make 1000hp on the stock bottom end

the rb26 is a worthless heap, in stock form
the 2j is ------- heavy and the people with the power have it for about 2k rpms
20b's are 3 rotor, id rather have the 13b

if I had to choose, I wouldnt mind having a rb26 completly rebuilt the way it was meant to be...costing about... $15k.
I also wouldnt mind having a 13b built with everything there is to build it with...
and I still love my B series motor. Many different ways to build it...especially with the aftermarket support.

in stock form, i'd have a hard time choosing. I think id still rather have my R, and I haven't drivin it hard yet.
