Get the B18C5 and then sell the ls tranny and use that money plus a little bit more to get a b16 or gsr tranny. If that can't be done, then I'd go with the GSR

Yeah, best bet is to get the B18C5 and the LS tranny for now. When you have a lilttle more money, sell the LS and get a gsr tranny.

ls tranny's are actually not hard to sell since thats what them tubro guys like. so get the c5. yet theres this one guy with a itr tranny in my town here whos been looking to trade it for a ls with cash on top.

if you decide to keep the LS tranny for the c5 it will not go anywhere compared to the c1/c1 tranny combo. If you can get a B16 or ITR tranny, even a gsr tranny, then the c5 will have the upper hand. If you plan to build the motor in the future, get the b18c1. Much cheaper to start off with, and that money that you save on the initial buy can go into rebuilding it.
