Do you think I can put an H89 head on it?

I'm prepping my replacement A14 block and discover that the deck has been milled. The piston are sticking up 0.025 inch. And the A14 dish pistons have been milled down and now has 0.025" dish. That means the bottom of the shallow dish is level with the block deck, but the rim of the pistons are above the deck. Like flat-tops but with the rim sticking up -- and no valve reliefs.

I'm guessing whoever did it was using an open chamber head. But I don't have any spare open heads except the one on my running sedan. I have H89, GX or H95 swirl-port head -- and with heart-shaped chambers.
