yeah man, the one motor has the clutch/flywheel bolted to it, the other has the plate where the torque converter bolts to. All D-series transmissions are interchangable. THe a/t version doesnt have a "flywheel." That piece with the holes where the torque converter goes to comes off, as does the clutch and flywheel.

i believe on the z6 is a torque converter for an auto tranny, so all you need to do is swap your flywheel clutch assembly over to the z6 block and you should be good to go

Yea, the blocks are the same its a simple swap, 8 bolts just make sure you torque them down properly now and it would also be a good time to get a new pilot bearing.
