Default B16 header on B18 motor?

can someone tell me if a vtec DelSol header (B16) will fit on a JDM B18C? I'm looking for a pipe that already has the hole for the 02 sensor
Thanks
Leisyman

ha!!!! funny u ask. i've been trying to solve this very problem with my car. i used to have a b16 but recently swapped out the block for a b18c. the b16 manifold hits the oil pan before it reached the head. i was thinking a gsr manifold, but it's not the same length and is too short to reach the cat (i guess you could get that fixed at a muffler shop.) so... i took a big *** hammer and bashed the **** out of the b16 manifold and... TA DA!!!! it fits now!! just like magic.
just so u know, i'm ok with that because the turbo is going back on as soon as i break in the engine.
