I think so. They're only rated at like 70 hp or something.

Creating an HF all-motor monster

Well, if you’ll remember the HF motor has an 8-valve head, which is great for fuel economy and miserable for performance. The 16-valve head will raise compression substantially creating a surprisingly powerful hybrid. Now, what kind of numbers can you expect from this setup? A friend of mine recently used a similar setup and put down 112, 109 to the wheels. With this type of power, look to be pulling on GSR’s, Civic Si’s and even the occasional unsuspecting Type R owner.

If everything goes as planned, and things stop PWNing my wallet, I'm going to end up with a y8 mini me turbo.. Just a small turbo, though, streetable.

the HF monster doesn't seem like a bad idea.

I would rather find ways to make the HF head work for performance figures. Yah, 8 valves and rollers. I mean, some of my nastier motors have been 8 valves.

I have a 22R hybrid engine I'm finishing up right now, hemi pistons, high flow head and offenhauser dual-plane intake with a holley 390 4bbl in nickel plate.

8 Valves can rock out.
