Default NPI cams in PI head?!

ok guys heres my situation, got some used heads, cam is kinda fubar, head is good, can i use my npi cams in the pi head? obviously im gonna lose power compared to putting in the PI cams, so for the person who says "dont do it its not worth the time" idc, keep the comment to urself. but will they work in it for the time being? and im sure ill still notice and increase in performance but just a little bit less than i would expect from a complete PI swap. tahnks for any help guys

I think the power would even out because PI heads on a npi short block will increase compression which also increases power.

I sold my old cams for 60.
