use a z6, it's a way better block/bottom end than the d15 will ever hope to be. also the y8 head works great to a certain point but the z6 head outflows it considerably and will make more power easier

okay thanks...i wasnt sure becouse the d15 will actually be higher compression and would be better for low boost?

The y8 will do fine, but the z6 head will still outflow a ported y8 head cause of the type of ports
