Default Turbo B16, which tranny?

OK...here's my question....

I'm planning on a turbo B16A for my EH2. My question is, should i stick with the B16 Tranny or should i go for the LS Tranny? If LS is the way, where can i get a "good" condition LS Tranny and for how much? Also, should i swap out the final gear ratio for a GSR instead of the LS? Which LSD should i purchase? type r? kaaz? cusco? and one more thing, is the LS tranny a cable or hydro tranny? Thank you ALL for any comments!

I would use the b16 tranny unless this is a daily driver that gets alot of highway miles and you dont like going about 3500rpm at 70mph. I like my b16 tranny and wont go back to another ls tranny. If you want the ls tranny I think hmotorsonline.com might have one, i know they have/had b16 trannys. From what i hear quaife makes a good lsd. The 90-93 ls trannys are cable and the 94-01 ls trannys are hydro. But im only 17 so what do i know

if you're trying to drag use a b16, if you're shifting into 5th, use a gsr
