B16 tranny in LS

[boosted k20]

Does any one have a B16 tranny in their LS integra? The b16 tranny has shorter gear ratios which will help out alot down the 1320. i just wanna know the difference it will make (how much time will it shave off? more or less than 0.5 sec's ?)

also, if anyone has a b16 tranny in there car, how is highway driving compared to the LS tranny. i would expect the b16 tranny to be up in the rpms when cruising down the highway. in my LS, in 5th gear, my car cruises at around 3-3.5K at 75 mph. im expecting the b16 to be around 4-4.5K rpms?

thanks again

i just bought a integra ls 2001 and tryin to convert it to ls/vtech with a b18c5 head, b18c1, or a b16a head. Any expertee will share some info? whats the best way i can modified my whip and being the meanest nympho roaming the steet. Another question, my transmission is an automatic,but i want to convert it to a manual shift. should i get an ls tranny or an lsd tranny?

1st ur trying to build an LS/VTEC motor not a LS/VTECH

The best head is the b16 head. it flows like the type R head and is more affordable.
If your gonna swap the tranny, then u should do what im probably gonna do, get a b16 tranny. it will most likely lower ur 1/4 ET's

but before u do any sort of work on ur car, i would advise u to read up more on things. gain knowledge 1st, then build your car.

well I'm not sure but in my car which has shorter gearing than newer gs-r's My car runs at about 3.5k at around 60mph


PS first gear is a beast goes from 1000rpm to 8000 before you know it.

i wonder how much it would cost me to swap the 5th gear from an LS into the b16 tranny. My boy owns a shop and he has tranny's all over the place in his shop. i bet i can get one for cheap. How hard would it be to do the 5th gear swap. i'll probably do it myself, but i have no clue how too. i better start reading!

I am pretty sure that will work, I would let your buddy do the work though. Trannies are a pain enough and if you have never messed with one then you are likely in for a pain in the ass. Your buddy could probably do it much easier.

man you guys give me a confusing advice, seem like everyone know something different, in a thier own opinion. Dont know who's right or wrong
come one guys

[silver bullet LS]

one more thing how much would it cost me if i want to change my head to a b16a, b18b1, or b18c5. Plus with a lsd or gsr tranny that's it. In over all how much will it be not including the labor????

the reason our answers are confusing you is because we are not answering you, this is not your thread it is boostedk20's asking about trannies. We were answering his questions not yours.If you have a question that is not identical to his start your own thread.

LMAO. good one knorwj

it seems like silver bullet LS dont know jack shit bout cars. U say u wanna change ur LS head to either a B16a, B18C5 or a B18B1???? u already have a B18B1 in ur car bro. maybe u mean a B18C1. well a LS/vtec conversion will run u $700 for labor plus some more for parts and shit. tranny will run u maybe 300-500 bucks for labor. and a LSD alone is gonna cost u alot. start a new thread and u'll get some staright answers.
