Yes you can. The B18C1 head flows less but the difference is not much and In stock form you will have a slight bump in compression. Other than that I believe it bolts right on. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

It will bolt on; however you're gonna need a gsr intake manifold b/c a b16 one won't bolt up. The gsr head flows slightly less, will give higher compression, and the cams are slightly more agressive.

I think the difference in fast/slow will be negligable
