The d16y5 head is crap because of the 12 valve lean burn. Also you will need a wideband o2 and a hx ecu. I say find a better vtec head.

Use the y5/y8 manifold on the y7 head if your not already. If It was me I would sell the hx head and find me a ex one. To answer your original question yes you can use the hx head on the ex block.
