No, you can't. Look at the size/shape of them...

Remember, crossdrilled + slotted = alot of cooling surface, but, in your everyday driving/everyday car with stock engine, you don't need to have that kind of cooling potential, you are looking more towards surface area, which means less slots and holes.

As previously said, you can't because they are way different.
