Reuse ls/vtec head on a vtec bottom end? how?

I am wondering if I can reuse a b16a head that was previously tapped for an ls/vtec.What will I have to do to the head to use it on a b16 shortblock?

you prob have to retrace the steps taken to convert it for a ls/vtec which means, relocating the dowel pins, closing off one of the hoels tapped for oil, and opening up another hole that was close off.
