Is it possible I can take a helium balloon tank and feed the helium through the input of my Yong Heng and then into my tank or my big bores does it also make the compressor not last as long and would it pop my burst disc?
Yong Heng compressor 4500psi and helium

My understanding of the use of Helium is that the pressure gain is ONLY when you release pressure/shoot the gun. Helium expands much faster than compressed air. At least, that is what I came away with after looking up why anyone would want to use Helium. Nitrogen is used simply to reduce moisture.
Other than that, look at how folks are using Nitrogen to feed their compressors. I think that will be your best avenue to do what you seem to have your heart set on. In my own opinion, I think you are chasing a Unicorn. But then again, I don't want to do what you want to do with an airgun. If I truly needed that much fpe, I would find a way to use a firearm.
In any case, good luck to you and look into how folks are charging with Nitrogen. You will have to do it the same way with Helium.
All my best!

Yep- the same fittings and reg that people use for Nitrogen are the same for Helium a std industrial tank will be a CGA 580 and most compressors inlets have either a 1/4npt or a 1/2 npt female

If you are talking about those disposable helium tanks like walmart sells then NO those will not work
