Default b16 vs b18 (engine weights)

I'm sure this has been done to death and the b18 usually dominates since it has larger displacement. However, I'm not into drag racing, I'm trying to build a good autocrosser out of an EG hatch. As you all know, weight plays a big factor on the autocross track, so what I'd like to know is how much heavier is the b18 opposed to the b16? Thanks in advance. See ya

the b18 is like half a pound heavier. seriously, both motors will yield identical handling characteristics.
