CHEAP HEAD TRICKS 120-130 1965

I am not rebuilding the engine I just have the head off for valve surgury(hardened exhaust seats). I am trying to keep the costs down to a minimum since I have 2 good b20f's that I plan to rebuild this winter with all the attention and parts that they deserve(one for the 122 and the other for the p1800es). BTW would the b20f head be a better choice for the b18(plugging the injector ports of course)? What effects would it have on compression, and what head gasket should be used?

Merci

Yvan
