Since the above poster took the time to be a typical forum poster and not really tell you, Yes the gsr head will work on a b16 block, I belive you just need to get gsr head studs, b16 head gasket and you will be all set. Just remember you need a gsr intake mani as well and any b-series exhaust manifold.
hope this helps.

Oh and expect a slight raise in compression due to the gsr's quench pad design

Lol why cuz its something that's been covered who knows how many times. He could've searched and found more info then he could ever read quicker then it took him to create this thread. So I don't believe he should be spoon fed. But if you want to spoon feed, by all means go ahead

Thanks n yea that waz helpful n much appreciated but besides tha fact that there is a lot of **** on tha web about it it's hard to tell what's legit n what's not, so I would rather come to a website where I know someone knowledgeable about this swap n also someone that has a 1 st hand experience instead of sittin on tha computer for hours tryin to find somethin that I don't even know is correct or not

LOL? You were probably in the same boat one time, and wondered the same things.
And I would answer the same questions over and over again if I had to. Maybe I care about helping people more than you do.

Sorry its hard to believe someone didn't help you out at some point in time with your car so you can understand what you have better.
We all know how to use google but sometimes asking questions from people who have actually done it is better.
You obviously don't understand the concept of helping a fellow enthusiast.

it's a b16 block, so you can only run a b16 belt.
