im looking for some advice.. i want to see if i can make decent power on a stock and pretty tight budget build lmk what u guys think so far

stock 00 b16 head with 00 itr cams
95 ls block with pr3 pistons
stage 2 exedy clutch and fidanza fly wheel
arp head studs
ls tranny...

block is going to be decked alsso getting all new bearings
head will be getting shaved, all new valves and valve seals

 

all good except the tranny i would get a b16 or gsr or something of that nature

 

^LS will be a snail. gsr or b16 tranny would make that a 1 nice setup. im sure you would enjoy it

 

X3 on the trans

 

i kno i knoo but i mean u dont think an ls tranny will help on the highway??

 

get a GSR tranny and put an LS 5th gear in it.
if your worried about the highway get a D15b7 and save gas

 

gsr at 80mph = 4000 rpms
b16 at 80mph = 4500 rpms

both are quite livable even on long distance trips, and if you know your way around the inside of a tranny you can use a ls 5th gear.

 

no no no lol i dnt care about gas.. i ment because a ls tranny has longer gears wont it make power longer? or no..

 

no. itl just take longer to get up to speed.

 

what is 80mph for ls..

 

200rpms lol
idk, im sure 300hpej knows

 

hahaha im thinking like 3600ish? mabye..

 

I agree with these guys, I'd get a B16 or GSR tranny. I am using a GSR with my LS and its fine. LS tranny has long gears and will kill your acceleration.

 

honestly ive never been in or driven a car that had a ls trans, but my guess is 3400-ish.
