Default d16Z6 Vtec pressure switch on a d16Y8 head?

I have studs for a Y8 head, and i have a Z6 head. I found a guy selling a Y8 head for $50, but it's missing the Vtec pressure switch and solenoid. My question is, will the Z6 Vtec components fit the Y8? I've searched but no luck.. All help is appreciated

Maybe check the part numbers?

Yeah that'd probably be a good idea ha, thanks. They're both different part numbers, but i know the Z6 and Y8 camshafts are interchangable so i thought possibly the pressure switch would be too.

Pressure switch itself is interchangeable but not the whole solenoid
