That depends on what you're substituting it in. If its baking, I wouldn't do it. Heavy cream has a much higher fat content, and will throw off a baking recipe. If you're just substituting it in mashed potatoes, or soup, or a sauce, I'd use it 1:1, one cup for one cup. You'll just end up with a richer tasting, smoother end product with better mouth feel, that's all.

What kind of milk do you use to make whip cream?

Whipped cream is not made directly from milk, and it is not possible to make whipped cream with homogenized milk purchased at supermarkets. Milk will froth and foam, but it does not have enough fat to form whipped cream. One needs heavy cream to make whipped cream. Heavy cream is separated from non-homogenized milk. When fresh milk is left to stand, the cream will rise to the top, where it can be skimmed off. This cream is further concentrated into the "heavy cream" or "whipping cream" that can then be whipped into whipped cream.
