the b16 has shorter gears all around. the ls is more gas mileage oriented with longer gears. ls final drives are po pular in b16 trannys for interstate driving.

 

B16 tranny are way shorter then LS ones.

The B16 tranny inteands to go out after a while cause of the short gears and high rpm's that it's in.

And you'll get shity gas milage if you use a B16 tranny.

 

BUT I HAVE SEEN IN A CHART WHERE they show all tyhe gear ratio of b sereis tranny and the say the only diifrence between the ls and b16 is the final drive.

 

b16a and ITR (USDM) have the same gear ratio.

1st 3.230
2nd 2.105
3rd 1.458
4th 1.107
5th 0.848 (JDM SiR II and USDM ITR) and 0.875 (99-00 Si USDM)
reverse 3.000

LS S80 Gear ratio (94 UP)
1st 3.230
2nd 1.900
3rd 1.269
4th 0.966
5th 0.714
reverse 3.000
