please don't ask why someone would do this.
but what would the ups and downs of this be?
thanks a lot.

 

up side: -raised compression due to smaller combustion chamber
- all your b16 head parts can be spares or used on the gsr head

down side: (if any) -price of gsr head
- dual stage intake manifold (maybe)

also i <U>think</U> gsr has slightly better cams
and the intake manifold can be swapped with a skunk2 unit

 

actually i've seen this done on a friend ek! it raised the compression alot especially cause the block had ctr pistons. ran strong and head had work done from jg engine dynamics. what I've seen that was pretty gay was an b18a head on a b18c block. i don't know how they got it to work, but it did. sucked ***** though!

would the compression change if you did this? if it's all stock...stock B16h ead and stock b18 shortblock

 

What do you want from that swap. Why do you need this?

 

if you use a stock b18c1 block with stock gsr internals and slap a b16 head on it u will lower the compression.. this is what im doing currently right now but im using 12:1 compression pistons so that my compression will even out to 11:1.

thanks...leaving everything stock with the lower comp, is this going to hurt anything?...besides hp. plan to do this on my 00 Si.

 

GSR head on B16 block = GHEY!!!
only a n00b would ask that kind of ****....oh wait....nevermind...

 

suck a dick bitch.
just cuz i'm not a post ***** doesn't mean i know jack shiet.

 

never mind all that other bull ****

b18c head + b16 block = disappointment

 

i would only cosider this if:

1. I was low on money and wanted to build a fairly cheap setup.
2. I already had a b16 and could get a gsr head for cheap.


If you already have a b16 just buy the gsr head and sell your b16 head. That should even out your cost. Then just buy the skunk2 IM. Do a search for this setup, alot of people have used it, and some people really like it.

 

why? you realy dont know what your talking about do you?
