Default B20 VTEC, will the valves clear?

Ok, I got a question. If I drop a B16 Head on the B20B motor, will the valves have enough clearance? Or do I need to get aftermarket Pistons?

After market piston is a better way to go but you can take a dremel and extend the valve reliefs for the intake valves. Not that hard. Just measure the diameter of the valves and match it on the piston. Take your time......
