b20 head on b16a block

Hi.
I have a b16a2 engine and recently i dropped a valve that ruined my cylinder head so now i need a replacement.
Will a b20 cylinder head fit my b16a2 block? If it does will i loose/gain any power just by swapping the heads?
Tkx

Just dont do it and everything will be fine! Get the b16 head repaired or get a new one!

Yes you will lose significant power, plus have to deal with tuning issues.

And the selling point.. u will lose vtec y0!
