ok i'm doing research on what i should go wit for an engine swap i wanted a 90-91 b18a non vtec ls motor cause it response good to mods etc, and is easier to install in my car (by the way i have a 91 4dr lx), but the b16's are everywhere in my searchs. so i seen this b16a sir w lsd 140hp and 111lbs torque for $2200 but theres a b16a sir with out lsd for $1800 and these swaps come with cable, trans, mounts, ecu, and axles. im not ready to drop that type of cash just yet but when i am for sake of reseach is lsd worth the extra 400 bucks? from what i know lsd prevents torque from escaping to one or the other wheel right? from you guys experience and gals is that worth my money cause i want the power and speed but i dont plan on hitting the track frequently. i know i dont want vtec and i gotta taste the power of the swapped engine b4 i say i dont wanna turbo charge it etc. basically i want engine thats not too much of a pain to swap in cause i wanna do it myself.....not a mech but i think i can do this project plus i'll become ...with time lol. so b16a lsd vs b16a non lsd (vs dif b18's) these are just some im pondering.
