to be honest, you probably won't gain any horsepower.

i have both cams from both heads right here ( this thread made me wonder as well) and from what it looks like there really isn't to much of a diffrence in the size of the cam lobe ( i would take pics if i had a camra) it might make a diffrence but i'm not sure of how much it would be

The B18b cams don't actually add much (if any) power. The main distinguishing factor between the a and b cams is the change in power band e.g. the B18a cams don't really hit a nice power band until 3.5K-4K, whereas, the B18B cams start making more power by the time 2K is reached. HTH.
