best tranny for y8
 

i did my d16y8 swap to my 95 civic. it had a d15b swap so i used the same tranny thinkin it would be good. it dosent run as good as it should.
so my question is whats a good tranny i can use with it?
i was told i should go with a 89-91 civic Si but i dont know the code for it.
do ya know?

thanks

go with a z6 tranny on the y8 for best performance i did...

B000 = large bearing case = EX/Si case, GOOD!!!!

The stamp B000 is on the casing itself.

Right near where the starter should go.

Also, you cannot use the 89-91 transmission in your car due to it being a cable trans and you buying a cable conversion would just be silly. The 97 EX transmission have steel shift forks instead of aluminum ones. But, hell, get a z6 or y8 transmission. Any other one is doo doo.

Yep, thanks, thats good idea.
 

I tried some possibilities ( etc.) but with no success.
