A B18c1 is a GSR motor not an LS motor just to let you know. You could do the GSR motor or a boosted LS (b18a or B18b) motor. The B18b motor boosted would probably be the cheapest.

Depends on what YOU want out of the car.
Are you going straight line drag or auto x'ing or just show or just a little more get up and go.
Find a direction YOU want to go with your car and do it.
As for me, I just finished off the B16A in my car. That's what I want to do, while I had people telling me BOOST BOOST BOOST! Do what you want, as for my recommendation, GSR motor N/A
