Default GSR head on B16 block????

Just wondering... one of my boys has a bl1 in a hatch and one has a GSR... they were talking about trading heads which i know for the gsr, putting a b16 head on it has advantages but ive never heard anyone talk about a gsr head on a stock bore b16.....
would this benefit both the GSR for compression and the B16 for having a larger cam profile or would there be a downside to either of them doing this??????

The friend giving up the GSR head will lose compression, the other will lose some amount of air flow. GSR head is good for NA, the B16 head is good for FI, I think this would ba a rather pointless endeavor.

just how u said FI and it didnt imediately pop in my head "forced induction" because im used to the GSR head for boost because the cam profile is better for turbo apps.....
