Default B16a1 to b18 conversion

Hey I was throwing around the idea of dropping in a 1.8 crank into my b16a1 block and getting the forged rods and pistons for the 1.8, that should just drop right in to my b16 block right. worst case the only other thing i might have to change is the main caps girdle from the 1.8, give me some feedback out there....anyone else out there done this recently...pro..cons...
let me hear it..
Thanks
Laters...

The 1.8 has a taller deck than the 1.6 so you would need custom rods.
