forreal and you know the y8 is gona have lower miles you will never feel the difference between the two.

 

Ok since i have both motors wat would be a good set up with both of them, like say should i put the z6 head on it? would it make a diffrence?

 

i would get a z6 and hold it on the side... boost the y8.. if it blows replace with the z6.. my firend been doing this for 5-6 years down.. been threw 10 motors.. when he find them cheap he gets a spare

 

Boost the Y8 FTW

Man, you're a poser.

Just swap the valve cover, and it's VTEC.

 

ok now the question that i really need to know since i think imma stick with the y8 engine and boost that.... how much is it to switch from auto to manual now?

Search.

 

depending on a swap, you have to ask yourself what are your hp goals.

 

Actually from what I heard by switching to a Z6 head, you will lower the compresion ratio which is good for boost. This is do to the desing of the heads. But would that be worth all the truble?
