The exact same head. The castings are the same (P75), unless yours was a PR4 casting
(which I believe it might be, now that I think about it), and the differences are negligible
between the two. The CRV cams are different, however (less lift AND duration),
meaning they are built more for low end torque so you don't have to rev the **** out of
your motor to get it to go anywhere (CRV's are SUV's, after all). The CRV cams SUCK,
but then again, so do the stock LS cams. Go aftermarket

there isnt an advantage to putting a b20 head on an ls. there pretty much the same. the block is .2 liters bigger than the ls's thats where the advantage is.

Heads are the same. Unless the B20 head is stamped P8R.

it has a larger combustion chamber so you'll drop compression. but it does have vtec size intake valves.
