Yes you'll need Bseries axles and a Bseries tranny. Get a b16 tranny as well.

not compitable, D-series axles are too small to fit in B series tranny/ block.

The d-series tranny will not bolt up to the b-series block.

You might want to do a search or look around for a while in the FAQ. THere is a wealth of info on this site for that swap.

b series axels are way different then the d series so yes you need the b series axels you will also need a b series tranny, any hydro b series tranny would work but i would not recomend a ls tranny on a b16.
