Default ls???

ok guys.... i got a b18b in my 94 civic.... its a daily driver and on weekends,, kinda like my race car....

my question is.,... i got a b16 tranny on it right now.... what it would be the difference if i swap it out for a gsr tranny???? would it run better from a dig or roll???

i heard b16 its not good cuz u cant rev high with the ls////

thanx

The B16 tranny really makes good use of the low end torque of the B18B1. You will accelerate faster and be at a higher RPM in any gear compared to a GSR tranny.

it would run slower ETs but probably get a little better gas mileage. Leave the B16 tranny in unless you really can't stand the 5th gear

if i were you i'd do the LS 5th gear swap in the b16 tranny. so you have a close ratio trans with a nice cruising gear
