The transmission will work. But the gearing will suck. Also, depending on whether the transmission is 1990-1991 or 1992-1993, you may need a new clutch disk.

It will work I have that set up right now I us a flywheel from a 95 delsol dohc vtec and a clutch kit from a 95 del-sol Dohc vtec if you us the ls clutch it will work as well but it will not hold up if you plan on racing it.

all b series trannys are compatable. it just depends on cable or hydro if you need a conversion kit. ls trannys suck *** in gearing. only thing they got is a ong 5th gear. go with b16 tranny with lsd
