will a b18c5 with a b16a head rob me of some torque, or is it an all around good idea?

yea i know there's lot's of threads about this, but no one ever really mentioned problems or anything with it and was wondering if there were any big downs to the set up

well heres a little tip. a b18c5 head is basically a ported and polished b16 head with upgraded retainers, valve springs, cams, loss lotion assemblies and slightly ported and polished intake manifold. the differences are all internal. but if you found a b18c5 block with no head yes you can put a b16a or b16a2 head on it no problems but i would stay away from revving the motor past 8000 rpms a lot as to the b16 head cant take the abuse like the b18c5 head.
