9 Z6 head studs and 1 '96-'00 Civic D-series head stud. The 1 head stud goes where the VTEC solenoid is.

This is my same setup now. 9 Z6's head studs and 1 y8 head stud where the v tec solyn goes. d16y8 head gasket and z6 timing belt and it runns good just a little funny because the cam gear are different. the y8 cam gear is 1/2 tooth smaller and so i need the put my z6 cam gear on the y8 cam and it should run perfect. as for v tec i think it cracks open harder than my z6 head.

Why not look for a used Z6 head? I'm sure someone here has one <cough cough>

no i think the head internals are different but you can interchange parts like the cam and valves

Will all the sensors on d16y8 block work for z6 block. Just bought z6 block and seeing if it will be plug and play for the z6 block with y8 head the car is obd2 so I'm good there for the head part.
