ohh and will a jdm d15 vtec head fit on that sohc zc block

 

can anybody help me

 

Yeah it fits and its actually more aggresive then the stock z6 cam anyway..Just make sure you have the right d15b vtec motor because there was 3 stage vtec version also of the d15b vtec..

Im not %100 sure if the 3 stage vtec cam will work with the z6 head..I dont think so though because that motor is weierd..How it sounds it has 3 different cam profiles..

The 3-stage VTEC engine runs in 12-valve mode up to around 3000rpm. In this range, running in ideal conditions will activate the 'lean-burn' mode, where air-fuel ratios as high as 20:1 can be used to take advantage of the intake swirl induced by the 12-valve operation. This lean-burn mode is what makes the 30km/l mileage (for constant 60kmh speed) possible. A green 'ECONO' LED lights up on the dash when lean-burn mode is engaged.

From around 3000rpm up to about 6000rpm, the first VTEC actuator switch engages and the previously inactive intake valve now goes into operation. The engine now runs in 16-valve mode behaves just like any of Honda's highly spec'ed 16valve PGM-Fi engines. After 6000rpm the second VTEC actuator switch engages the wild cam/rocker arm pair for the intake valves. This switches the engine into the wild-cam mode where it goes bonkers delivering 130ps at 7000rpm. With the proper driving style, one can actually enjoy mileage as high as 16 or 18km/l in town driving while at the same time frequently indulging in VTEC-inspired sprints to overtake slower vehicles.

i just asked my friend he said it would work and the JDM SOHC D15B7 is 2 stage not 3 stage

 

Yeah, 3 stage is obd2, and not very common.
