Default d17a2 head swap

All right stupid questions. No haters plz. all right heres the question got a 01 civic with a d17 sohc vtech, my dad insists that a dohc HEAD will fit on the d17 block. but it looks a lil small not side to side but forward and backwards. is this true that it will fit or will not fit. me and my dad have a lot of experience with V8's (building 1 now) but not with 4 bangers.
