everyone on here will tell you swap. and i mean everyone. i like single slammers though and choose to keep them. if i blow it up, ill buy another for a couple hundred. they have potential to make moderate power. and since you only want 150 i say get another z6 and have it made to your liking. dont skimp out on anything and keep it running. tops your looking at 1000 to have it reliable and well built with your specs. a swap to b-series will run you about 1000 said and done and will not be the way you want it. hope this helps more then the normal response of "swap" with no info on what or how much.
