Default piston question: b17 piston = b16 piston?

I im trying to choose pistons for my b17 block and i know the cast of the b17 is almost (or is) identical to that of the b16. So when choosing pistons can i use b16 or b17 pistons? What about b18 pistons?

danks

If you're using a B17 crankshaft and B17 length rods you can use B16A, B17, or B18 pistons without issue as the compression heights are the same.

stock b17 compression ratio is lower than the b16 or b18vtecs.
