Default D16a with y8 head. Any improvement or stock?

Over stock*

I'm buying a obd2 d16a non v. It's rated at 120 hp.i was wondering if anyone's put a y8 head on it and had luck? Gracias

That combination will be almost 12:1 and will require tuning for optimal performance.

Oooo. That sounds pretty good... I tried a z6 block with y8 head but the machine shop fucked up so I'm getting the d16a nonv and was thinking if the v tec head would be better than the aggressive cam that the A has. My y8 head is milled to max. Do you think that will be a problem?
