Default head swap question

could you put a dohz ZC head on a b16a block?
would it be worth it?
i have a b16a block but no head so i was just wondering. i have an eg so i would have to do a OBD0 to OBD1 conversion if i got a b16a head, would i have to do it on the dohc head also? what about if i got a head for the b16 that comes in eg models? would i be able to just put that on and not have to swap for OBD1, then just use either the wiring harness for that or a d-series harness and wire up v-tec manually?
umm i think thats it thanks alot

you can do it. theres a write up somewhere i saw. kicker though... a huge amount of fabrication, probaby costs more than a b16a complete swap for a 10% hp gain.
