The B17 is basically a stroked B16, pretty much identical in power. A bit lower compression ration though.
Unless you want a headache, I wouldn't bother trying to stick B17 parts in a B18c...not worth the effort.

Re: b17 info (gibsanez)
well the reason im asking is because i have a gsr head and i came across a b17 short block. so will this combo work? i wanted to know if b18c parts fit in the b17. im planning on building the engine any way. so does the b17 have a longer stroke than an ls? any input is appreciated.

Well, considering all the B series engines (cept B20) have the same bore, it's physically impossible a 1.7 can have a longer stroke than a 1.8.
Also, the deck heights are a lot shorter, you would be using custom rods with a 1.8 crank in the 1.6/1.7 block.
