Best way to Race with a Tranny is

LS 1st Gear
LS 2nd Gear
Gsr 3rd gear
B16 4th gear
Ls 5th gear

Thats the way i did it

i know i can get mid 300's but im using a smaller turbo for less boost lag and quicker spool si may end up getting high 200's but im doing Road and drag so i was looking into the more all around tranny dont know how its gonna work yet so we will have to see

how big of a turbo are you using. That block should be able to hold 400-500hp.

that gearset is going to be fun.
i have a very similar setup, with LS 1st and 2nd, B16 3rd and 4th, and an LS 5th.
i'm really happy with mine so far. good luck with the rest of the build!

Crazy and wrong hahaha but its ok everyone thinks different in ways thats why theres HT lol

ls is similar 2 gsr 1st and 2nd 3 ls really long 4 ls really long 5th well u get the gist

gsr is similar 2 ls like i said 1st and 2nd but third has a good ratio for traction and speed 4 is alright and 5th is ok also

b16 way to quick of RPM jump for first and second 3rd i will still spin and 4 is great if u get traction

thats why i bought this tranny as soon as i saw it up for grabs

That RA finish on your head looks a little too corse. It should be a pretty smooth finish on there. IMO Did you have the head re-surfaced or did you just scuff it up with a scotch brite pad? Just throwing that out there. But everything looks good. I want to get one of those GE blocks for my car. GL with everything else
