id say 5 speed if your going to make alot of power or you will be shifting into 6th gear.

as far as block choices I say k24

i know what LSD means limited slip. most likely i will burn out throught most of the gears with LSD right? so would it be a good idea to have LSD with that type of power? it seems like a good idea not to have LSD but im wondering how is it with LSD.

lsd will make both wheels spin rather than just one...i cant think of a situation where you wouldnt want to have it.....so if you have the money get it....and go with the k24 bottom end.....the liters count for somthing.
