Want to go LST.. b18a or b18b better?
i want to do an ls turbo, but i cant find a good deal on a b18b..
i had a shop tell me he could get me a full b18a swap for between 600 and 800..
so should i hold off and wait till i can find a newer one in my price range or is the b18a a good motor?

92 civic and up = hydro tranny, 92 and below (b18a swap) = cable tranny. if u got a newer car get a b18b for simplicity for ur sake it'll swap right in. but there is no difference between the motors. minor if any.

theres no differance between the 2 motors
blocks are the same
b18b has a better intake manifold and bigger cams
but the 2 motots are the same
