Will the DOHC head off of an 88 Acura fit a 91 Civic Si block??

I have a DOHC head off of an 88 Acura. Can I swap it with the SOHC on my Civic Si?? If so what do I need, and what else can I do with it before I swap it??
Thanks

Every post I've read says that you can't stick a DOHC head onto a SOHC motor.
Sorry, dude.

Some kid i used to work with was supposedly having a motor built for him that had an a6 block with a DOHC zc head on it......he claimed the guy building it said it would work if you replaced cam gears and something else, but after a couple weeks the kid told me he was just getting a b16 instead cause the labor was taking a lot longer and much more expensive then originally thought so im guessing that the dohc head on a sohc block was all bullshit
