Re: b18c block/b16 head or ls vtec

I have a B16A so can tell you first-hand the B16 transmission gearing is very short. For your particular application I would choose a transmission with taller gears such as the LS or GSR. I believe the LS gears are taller than the GSR. The GSR's gearing is designed more for faster acceleration from a dead stop, but the powerband should last longer with the LS gearing.

As for the fuel pump, if you're building a GSR block, then I would just use the GSR pump. I don't think there's really a difference between the GSR and LS pumps from the factory, although I could be wrong.
