Default swap options? keeping tranny.

i may end up needing to swap out my engine, and i want to up size, currently have a b18a1 block, with a gsr head, i have a 2000 civic si tranny with a 7lb aluminum flywheel, and a six puck clutch, 5th gear is touchy, i want to find a 6spd, in time, are there any out there that flywheel and clutch will work in? but right now the main issue is, keeping that in mind, what motor do u recomend?

Honda do not make 6 speed for B series engine, you might have to go K series swap...

it k's will fit in your car with the correct mount kit (such as from hasport) and other components. The clutch and flywheel is different for the k and b series. Basically B series tranny will only fit on b series motors without modifications.

h2b a using an h series motor with slight mods and a custom kit to bolt a b series tranny on. drop it right into a civic/integra utilizing b series parts. just search. its really crazy with h2b now. pretty sure you'll find alot of info, dyno numbers, and track numbers about them.
