head swap?

okay, we've got an E16S, and potential access to a GA16i motor/trans. I've asked about swapping the motors in the B11/12 forum, but nobody seems to know for sure, so if the motors won't swap, what about the heads? The GA motor has one more valve per cylinder, so I figure it'd have to be worth some gain, especially if we massage the ports a bit...
Has anyone looked into this swap, or did they redesign things too much?

no the head will not fit from the ga16i to the e-16 totally different motor.

well, that's what I was figuring, but wanted to check and make sure...

So, does anyone here know if the E16S, and GA16i use the same motor mounts?
