mating gsr head with b16 block

I have a Obd2 Gsr head and a Obd2 b16a2 block....

is there anything needed to match these together? Is the headgasket the only thing needed to bolt this motor togehter? is this a disadvantage to having a full gsr?

IT WILL HAVE .2 LESS COMPRESSION , bit other than that no, just bolt it on and the head gaskets are the same

yep, more copression less displacement, gaskets are the same it's a direct bolt on for the most part, using the GSR thermostat housing makes things a little easier when routing the water hoses.
