depends what the plans are for the car.

2JZ's will make high power more easily than an LSx, but if you want handling you will probably have better weight distribution/torque curve for road racing or whatever out of a LSx. They fit in anything, and can easily make 450+whp NA all day every day, and love it.

Trans options are all over for the LS1, and clutches aren't too expensive. Also easy to run an auto if you want to go that route.

Depends what you are looking for.

Drag car would be 2JZ for me, head/cam/nitrous LSx for just a fun vehicle.
