Why not just keep the d16z6 head and just use the y8 intake manifold? But I do believe its a combo but cant remember how many studs from each motor

When I swapped a z6 head onto y7 block, I bought some ARP headstuds for the y7 but ran into the same problem, 2 studs (one on far left, far right of the intake side) are different, I had to use 2 stock headstuds... hopefully that helps

I'm pretty sure you'll have to use 1 Y8 bolt on it.. and if you do this you do know that your timing is going to be a little off right??

lol i have a Y8block witha a Z6 head and we had the problem, with the studs not going in right (because we had all D16Y* Studs). We fixed it by forging a piece to make up for the difference so that it would torque down.

one z6 head stud, that one goes near the vtec solenoid and the rest use the y8 head stud...

or is it the other way around.. hahahaa.... but that is how i did mine, either use all y8 head stud with one z6 or all z6 and one y8...

well it was all y8 and 1 z6 with your y8 block and z6 head.. with his it should be all z6 and 1 y8 since he is putting the y8 head on a z6 block....

9 head studs/bolts for the block you're using, and 1 head stud/bolt specific to the head you're using.
