Default B16A Headers to B18C

So I found a really good deal on some mugen headers. I was wondering if the b16a exhaust manifold would bolt up to b18c? thanks

Yes, all B series have the same exhaust flange. You can run any B series header on any B series.

not entirely true the b16 has a shorter deck height then the b18c some b16 headers will not fit do to the different deck heights

This is wrong. A B16 header is specificaly a B16 header.
Conversly, a B16 header for a B18 is to short and will hit the oil pan, but any header for B18's will fit all B series and hang low as **** off of a B16
