Answer
Hi Barbara.
 If your son wants more speed, then his best bet is to take it to a shop that specialises in those kind of modifications.  I don't believe that a CB900 head can be installed onto a CB750, but I am not certain.  If the heads fit and all of the mounting holes and oil ports match up EXACTLY, then it should work, but it will require other changes to the engine that I am not certain of.  Either way, he's looking at a huge job.  He might be better off looking around for a used 900 to get instead.  It may end up costing a lot less in the end.

Good luck to him.
