I'm swapping a y8 head on my z6 block and was wondering if i could use my arp's that are for the z6 with the y8 head? Also anyone know if there are any timing differences between the y8 and the z6 as far as cam timing and ignition.

PS yes i searched for about 30 minutes!!!

My friend had to use custom studs from arp when he was putting his z6 head on his y8 block. As for timing, you will be off by 1/2 a tooth, but that can be corrected with an adjustable cam gear.

 

do you know which direction i will be off? Will i still be off if i use everything from the y8 head(cam, camgear etc.)? Thanks I couldnt get the answers I needed when i searched.
