I'd argue you've not done enough research if you'd be surprised by the head going, it's a pretty common occurrence lol. Speaking of research, have you tried the links at the bottom of the page? Some good info in a couple of those if memory serves.
I guess you're planning on building the hybrid yourself since you're saying it's the cheaper option? You'll need a dremel or similar porting tool to ream out the hotside, have to be very careful to match the profile of the bigger unit's turbine wheel, else it'll end up inefficient enough that it's not worth doing. I'd recommend getting an egt gauge in your manifold too, at least then you can see when the temps get too high and lift off, should help avoid any inconvenient catastrophes.
