No problem shaving it to B18B thickness. That's all Volvo did.

You cannot put B20 guides into a B18 head, but you can definitely have your machine shop turn the B18 guides to accept stem seals -- not B20 seals, but they'll be able to provide the correct ones.

Absolutely have exhaust seat inserts fitted.
