I heard the heads were exactly the same. I'm not sure about the cam, but if they were different, then you wouldn't gain a lot.
Some please confirm that ^^^

they are the same, the d16z6 head even says p08 on it. and yes the cam is more aggressive but not much more. some people would compare it to a stage 1 zex cam, but i find it hard to believe anyone who has no dyno proof to back it up

correct. you can put it on but the heads are identical. the blocks are really the difference in the two motors.

save your time and money. keep the d15b head. ull be losing hp since the d15b has a more aggressive cam.
