RE: os v-spec
I'm running the V-spec as well. On it's 4th gallon now and compression still good.
The 421B is also a good choice, but we've had 3 instances of the cooling head breaking the top fin completely.
RB of course would be a great engine, having just won the championship.
I'd hold out on Sirio as there is a newer version coming out.
The thing I like with the OS is parts are WAY cheaper than italian engines where I live.
