you cannot use the 14 bolt pattern lsd with any other ring gear except the one you have on it. i would, however, consider comparing your series b16 transmission ring gear with any other year model transmission and see what(or which) one was exact or closest to your transmission ring gear as well as use that countershaft(or final drive) as your new matching part.

It has a ring gear on it already. Thats why im confused really bad right now. It has 66teths on it and there is 14 bolts bolting it down to then lsd diff. The stock one has 66 teths to butt only like 10 bolts holding it down. Hey shift IM me and explain a tad better what you stated above. Its 3 am and im kinda slow.
Thanks
