Default D15b7 Mini Me - Which is best? [D15 JDM Sohc Vtec Head] or [ D16z6 Sohc Vtec Head]

I'm planning to do a mini me swap.. Which would be better / easier to put in?
they are both complete heads.. so yeah both are pretty much the same price..
1) Which is best?
2) Which is easier?
3) Which has the most hp stock?

The D15B does have a more aggressive camshaft, so if you have the opportunity go with it. You can also put the D15B cam into the Z6 head. Go to http://www.d-series.org for more info

Oh...well in that case. The D15B JDM head is awesome...if you do a 7000 RPM launch the ground will shake because of the sheer brut. On the other hand, the D16Z6 might be even sweeter. If you're in 5th and you floor it, the power delivery is so extreme that it'll pop your tires if you aren't using race compounds.
