You should be able to. You can even get a G5X3 on a 114 with those heads. I am going with the G5X2 on my Absolute Heads that have been slightly milled (5 thousenths).
BTW, did you notice that Speed Inc has a copy of the G5X2. Its called S16 on their website. They sell it for $379, compared to $450 plus $30 shipping from LG. I still got mine from LG though..

Hunh. Nice to know about Speed Inc.

It will fit as long as you have stock thickness head gaskets.

If the heads are on the car, pull the 1# intake spring, and put that piston at TDC. Tell me how much the valve "drops" before it hits the piston. This measurement, between 180thou, and 220 thou will tell me if you have adequate clearance to be sure.
