Default ZC or Z6?????

I am currently running a D16Z6 with short ram cold air intake, MSD cap, coil and wires, DC Header and a Clutch Master clutch and lightened fly wheel with a four speed tranny. Would it be worth the swap to DOHC ZC and ZC trans with these mods? If I were to make this swap would I need different axels, I have heard that ZC axels are equal length? Any information would be appreciated. Z6 is rated at 125 HP stock and I heard that the ZC is rated from 130-140 Hp stock. I was just curious if it would be worth the swap. OR

I say stick with the Z6, and get rid of that 4 speed tranny. That tranny is what is killing your performance. There is much more aftermarket support for the Z6 than there is for the ZC.

Keep your Z6! Get a Si tranny. IMHO for the money you can't beat a z6 swap.
