lets use some deductive reasoning here.....barney style..

a v6 means it has two banks of 3 cylinders offset from each other. each of these has a 3 combustion chamber head perched on top.

a d16 is an inline four with 1 4 chamber head.

what the **** made you think this would work?

Maybe he could bolt one head on enough to cover 3 cylinders, then sawzall the second head off at only one cylinder and then bolt that up to cover up the last remaining cylinder. It could revolutionize the game! Don't be such a hater, bro.

a simple no would have been suffice,but ok. Does any any head from an integra fit on a d16y7 block?

No not even ! d-series heads are interchangeable for the most part that's it
