B16/B18 head on D17?

OK so I was telling someone about how im doing a DX--> EX head swap, and he asked me "why not do a B16 or B18 DOHC swap?" Personally I wasnt aware that either fit the D17 block.

Anyone know if they do fit, without lots of modifications?

You need to slap that ricer. No they will not bolt up to a D17 block....
