These are the stock specs of the GSR and B16 cams from Crower.com.
Part # Description Advertised Duration, Duration @ .050" Gross Lift w/1.55
Stock Specs from Civic Si
Int-265 mid Exh-267 mid Int-219 mid Exh-214 mid Int-.412 mid Exh-.379 mid
Stock Specs from GSR
Int-274 mid Exh-276 mid Int-230 mid Exh-216 mid Int-.423 mid Exh-.378 mid

Just compare the specs. You can definetly tell they're not the same cam.
