Default B18C1 head on B16A shortblock
i know, i know "why" right, well, i ended up with a bunch of spare parts and **** lying around, just wondering if they would go together, and work without problems.

Yeah, it works. A guy at my track is running a B16 block with a GSR head, and he's having no problems. I don't know if you have to do any sort of work to get them to work together properly, but they do work.

you'll even get a slightly higher CR due to the B18c1's slightly smaller combustion chamber.

I'd change the manifold if you can.
