Default b20 swap in 97 hatch

hey all. im planning on swapping a b20 in my hatch early next year. what transmission should be used. the b20 i will be getting will most likely be out of a 97/98. will b18b trans match up with any problems? and as far as motor mounts go will my stock work with that setup? i will probably aquire new mounts anyhow but juts out of curiousity. thanks

The Integra LS (B18B) and any other B series hydro tranny will bolt up to the motor. I think that a GSR tranny is good for all around driving - not too high not high not too low.

If i were you i would go with the GSR tranny cause it has shorter gears so it will pull better

well i will somewhat be on a limited budget. I was thinking of just going with an ls trans. also because I do alot of highway driving. whats the price difference generally between a gsr and ls trans?
