The intake manifold isn't part of the head... so that has nothing to do with what he asked.


I believe that the gsr combustion chambers are bigger than the b16s, if you put a b16 head on a b18c block, you'd have a poor mans type R.

I'm sorry let me rephrase that, the gsr head has a different bolt pattern for the intake manifold than the b16 head.
