Default gsr head bolts or si head bolt

im working on a b16a2 head and a b18c1 block
what head bolts should i use?
i already installed the b16a2 bolts
but my friend told me to use the gsr bolts because they are longer than the si bolts.
is that true

Use the head bolts according to the shortblock you are using. In your case the B18C are the correct headblots because your running a B18C shortblock.

Personally I would pull them out and replace them with new B18C head bolts and a new headgasket.
