unless your friend is going to put some b16 pistons in the gsr block and a 2 layer head gasket, then, i would see it as a pointless poor mans type r conversion. otherwise, your friend is lowering the comp.
as far as your project goes. the gsr head on the b16 block is going to be slower than if you had the gsr block. you are still running on the torqueless wonder of the b16 bottom block. i would suspect it to be the same as pretty closely identical to a regular b16 longblock.
as far as your friend goes, id tell him, keep the b18c1 head. the gsr head flows better contrary to what he may believe
