Just an idea floating in my head wanted some opinions

So i just picked up a second ej8 (of course it doesnt run lol) anyways but its completley stripped out and there is no way in hell it could ever be street-legal again! So, long story short i'm going to build it into a drag racer. Right now i'm stuck on engine choice. My handling car is built around a D16 motor, so i'm not going to use that motor again (i like new things), so i'm trying to decide this: H22 swap, or K24 swap? In the end i'm shooting for about 850whp, and i'll be running a Garrett GT4202 or a GT4508R turbo. This will be about a year long project to get all of this in order. But the entire design depends on which motor i choose. What do you think?

even though im prone to H's...I say K24

i'm also leaning to the k24, the only thing is that the build ends up costing another 4k to do the k24, also its a huge pain in the ass to swap in properly. I'm going to have to do more research.
