Root Custom Kernel on Stock OS

[SoggyNugget]

I'm just wondering will I be able to flash a custom kernel while running the stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat on the Nexus 5?

Absolutely

You'll just need to make sure it's an AOSP based kernel and not one built for cyanogenmod

I don't see why not like the post above make sure its asop based and not cm based

Will Franco Kernel work?

I also suggest Elemental X, my personal favourite.
