6 rotor is more reliable and cheaper. Your boy probably has a few 6 rotor shafts laying around.

A conversion to either a 20b or 13b-re is pretty costly, get ready to dump some cash. Expecially if having a shop do the work. I know alot of people dont like to hear this but, an LS1 v8 will cost you less and be way more reliable. There is everything you need already made from many different companies

Wouldn't say its cheaper unless you went LQ4 with the LS intake. Still need to buy the mounts/subframe, drive shaft, ECU, wiring harness, etc. just like any other swap.
If I could do it over again, I'd buy an LQ4
