There are quite a few threads about this already, but for the sake of not posting in like three weeks, I'll summarize...You can, BUT the deck height on the b16 is about 7mm (IIRC) shorter than the b18's, therefore you'll need a short rod, or a piston w/ a raised wristpin ( shorter piston) or a combo of the two.
