b18a swap
 
So ive been tryin to decide what to do. Well ive got a guy giving me a preety good price on an ls swap. my only concern is the transmission with it being an ls and being long geared is the acceleraton really going to suck. I plan on going ls vtec if i do ill swap the transmission for s1.

get the 2nd gen gsr tranny very good for acceleration. but like chris said worth gold, will spend a good amount on it from 300-500 I think. Friend of mine bout his for 400, but it was worth it.

doo it.

with boost, the longer gears seem to become shorter...


or make 350+whp and dont worry about the long gears


get the ls swap and keep the tranny as a backup and pick up another tranny and you'll be set.
