Default novarossi 5 port VS RB 5 port

I am looking to put a new engine in my car. I have always ran with a novarossi but people are also telling me that rb's are good, so my question is what will be the better engine as far as accelaration and over all speed, the novarossi NRS12s5 or the RB Concept 1700-000510?

Any engine that you can handle well is better.

Experience head to head between my RB Rody Rome 5 Port against NS5 engine ( the previous version before NSRR ). Straight line almost the same speed, short straight my RB seem "abit" more power ( acceleration ).

They are both good engines, and you would probably be happy with anyone of them.
