i need something that doesn't rev high on the highway, just wondering if the B16B trans is good for this, or is there another transmission gear i should get? i was thinking of getting vitara's but i need the highway gear to be in the low revving range (like 3500RPM for a comfortable drive hense it'll be there for about 2.5ish hours/day.
BTW engine b20 block b18c1 head with JRSC

 

just swap an ls fifth gear into the tranny your using and no a b16b will still rev high

 

agreed

 

getting vitara's for what? Vitara pistons fit in D16 Blocks and have nothing to do with transmissions lol.
Unless u were talking about something else?

 

Hmm, maybe i'll look at getting the ls gear then. but will the ls gear be okay if the transmission has LSD? haven't bought the transmission yet but i seen one that i might buy today online.
BTW i thought Vitara made transmission gears?

 

yeah it will work i got one in mine

 

uhh, just cause were all on the same subject. my D16's Hydro tranny revs at 3500RPM at 75MPH. is this bad for my motor if say im cruising at 80MPH and at 4000rpm for a long drive?

 

x3 ls 5th gear!!!!!!!

 

so is it bad for a engine to rev at 3800RPMS for hours of an trip even if theirs full oil?

 

it shouldnt really be. Although it would prematurely wear down the motor and/or oil. But other than that no. And no Vitara is a car, its a Suzuki Vitara.
