So drill the water passages in right place and place the massive charger above the engine to compensate the low CR?

No, the water passage on the EBU heads are in a different location so sealing isn't a problem if you have 239 gaskets. If you scroll down to the topic- steel shim head gaskets- and look at the differences at cylinder #4 you can see the different water passages.

If the cast iron webs at cylinders 4 and 8 are not heavy enough, would the sealing problem be the same using the original EBU heads?
I believe sometime back, Ted may have done an estimated CC calculation of the EBU head, maybe the high sixties or low seventies, using two variables.

I got to thinking, it wasn't Tim. It was 46yblock and he came up with 76cc's

My brother had a 239 head and it had small chambers, smaller than the Gs.

No, but Tim has. I forget what it was. It's in an older post. My G heads are 67cc.

In addition to the fitment issues, I think the compression ratio would be extremely low.

Not without a lot of work. The water passages don't line up. The cast iron web at cylinders 4 and 8 isn't heavy enough to seal the head gasket.
