Just out of curiosity does putting the 16 heads on the 20 increase compression ratio? can't think of why you'd want to put heads from a smaller engine ont a larger one.....figured it'd be vise versa, but it seems everything with these econo cars are ass backwards anyway.
The b16 head will increase compression ratio, but not by enough that it would be worth it for the CR. However, the B16 is a VTEC head, which means three things:

Better cams

Much better airflow

Huge aftermarket
