searced but never got a real anwser. i always found something like "it might not work" sooooooo, will it or wont it? the gsr block is 7mm taller than the b16 so the gsr header will fit onto a b16 but the b16 header will not work on the gsr. if that makes sense

that is becuase the b18 header is taller than the b16. so when you put a b16 header on a b18 its too short. but i just want to confirm this

umm..i never witnessed it..but he said there would be no way it would fit, unless he had extention pipe welded...which would probably ruin the flow of the header..
