The biggest difference is the design of head/quench area. Which basically doesn't mean much if you don't plan on making lots of power.

Power output is similar, as are tq/hp curves. I'd go with whichever has lower miles.

If you're building it get whichever is cheaper. IIRC the Z6 head flows slightly better than the Y8, but there isn't a world of difference.
