i just want to know if the a6 head will fit on the z6 bottem end... its all gonna be obd0 i just want to know if anyone has ever tried this setup... i know im ghetto and lazy but i have all the crap layin around

 

haven't tried it myself but i'm sure it will work... d-series head bolts up on d-series block

 

It will, you will just have low compression ~8s.

 

I was thinkin about doin the same thing cause I got all those parts layin around also......good for turbo.....was my plan

 

the only issue would be the oil regulator, don't have enough experience with a z6 blockl to know what you could do for that.

 

im really going to get that low of comp? thats sweet the car is already turbo thats what produced the hole in the last block wastegate got stuck closed. can you explain a little more about the oil control?

 

not sure but you might be able to pull an oil jet from a non vtec sohc block.

 

you might be able to, but on the other blocks, it's kinda machined out for it.

 

what happens if i do nothing? its just going to squirt oil on the bottem of the headgasket right?

 

bump for the ghetto swap

That doesnt sound safe, that oil is going to soak into the gasket, it will eventualy spread im sure. putting an A6 head on a z6 bottom to me isnt worth the trouble, sell the A6, and get a z6 head.

 

blah im gonna do it.. if it blows up im out what?? a shitty bottem end and a shitty head besides 8comp sounds good 2 me. im sure i could tap it and put some kinda bolt in there. someone has to be as ghetto as me and have done this b4 lemme know

 

There will be too much oil available to the head without the restrictor. You may reduce the pressure and flow to the bottom end.

 

u need to run the z6 block with an oil jet from a a6 block. then it should work.

 

Peep this this! I can't post pics cuz my Vivitar is in the shop, but I am gonna post my latest swap. I call it Ridgeline Rex CRV 4WD.

It consists of the Honda Ridgeline 3.5L v6 with an auto to manual trans. swap and 4wd in the CRX body on a CRV frame with a 12 inch body lift and 8 inch suspension lift sittin on 52inch mickey thompsans.

It may just be the hottest swap on the market. I know it is gonna be pro-spec.

swap ya later.peace

Or an oil jet from any non-vtec block should work. Many people have done this before its called the no-tec swap. Basically it yields c/r of 8s. Which is perfect for boosting. usually the no-tec crowd get the more respect because of massive boost and not vtec. I give props as well.

 

Alohas,

i didn't find 2 much about it on that d-series site i actually only found one guy gettin flamed for tring it lol.. so if you know of a good link about it hook it up. Can i use a jet from a z6 head? or does it need to be from a non-vtec block?

 

well i found out that my a6 head that i was gonna use has 2 leaky valves.. im still going to do this though i just have to wait tell my other a6 head gets here sunday.. for the oil jet i used the z6 jet out of the head and put it into my z6 block all looks good it kinda sticks up a tiny bit though does that matter??

 

c/r with z6 head gasket(metal)= 8.609440997947613
c/r with crappy a6 headgasket= 8.43383096360439

ummm.....I dunno about that oil jet you don't want anything to interfer with your seal....I got an extra jet I just pulled out of my a6 block if you want that pm me....you could try replacing the valve stem seals in your leaky head....it isn't much money and you should be able to do it yourself.
