Default Swapping B16A block to B16A2.... Will I run into any problems?

The topic says it all. My ringlands are cracked/broken in my B16A block. My friend just happens to have a B16A2 block and I was going to swap the blocks out this weekend so I can get my car running smoothly again.

Is there anything I should look out for? Will all the brackets/mounts line up? Any difference at all between the two besides age?

Thanks in advance.

The only difference is the pistons, one of the blocks has p30's and the other should have pr3's. There is a slight compression difference, the jdm block having about .2 to 1 over the usdm
