my friend bought a sleeved block that was suppose to be a d16a6 and it turned out to be a z6, how much trouble will it be to put back into his crx witha a6 head, how much modification does he need...

Re: a quick stupid question about a d16a6 and d16z6 block (marked001)

while we are on the subject guys, Whats the difference between the D16A6 and D15B2 block. Ive heard the D15B2 as lighter internals and a little stronger, is this true? and what block is better to work on? Thanks
