LS Crank and Pistons in B16 block?

I have a quick question. I have a B16 and Im wondering if I can use an LS crank with the LS pistons and rods in my B16? Will it fit and work fine? Only reason I ask is because I found all those parts for really cheap. Thanks guys.

nope.
stroke is different, needing different lenght rods.
b16 block is also shorter than the b18.
