B16 head flows better and supports higher revs. B18C head on a B16 block probably bumps compression. The first of the two is the better combination.

I believe they call a b16 head on a gsr block a poor mans type-r. Yes b18c head on b16 block does bump the compression a little. Its like 10.6:1 or something.
