Default Need info on head swap i did

I need some help, i just swapped the head on my 1994 acura integra LS with a B18A head from a 1990 integra LS. I want to know what is the outcome with the combination of a B18A head with a B18B head?

Welcome to the forums.. There really wont be any outcome.. seeing as how both heads are the non vtec B18 heads its will still run as if the original head was on. You can swap a B16A head on there (otherwise known as the ls-vtec swap) and turn it into a vtec creating more power

i had planned doing that but since the head i got was the first head that came my way i took it because for some reason my old head the valves kept coming loose.
