Default dohc head on sohc block

Is this possible? What would be the gains if any? I am kind of new to honda's, and I heard a kid saying he was doing the swap. Was he just talking bs, I don't know the kid I just overheard him and another kid talking.

The zc head doesn't bolt up to other sohc bottom ends! You can't mix dohc and sohc heads, nor many other parts! They just don't work together!

it is impossible i looked into it
the spacing between cylinders is completely different
the distance between a dohc motor is wider
and if you did do a dohc head swap there would be super amounts of
machining to be done
the kid is talking **** IMHO
