just wondering what the power will be if i do this will it be better than the sohc zc or is there not point in doing this like will i just lose power or will i gain power...the only reason i am thinking of this is because i took my head off my zc cuz i needed a new head gasket and i looked at my b6 in my garage and was just wondering what it can do with the zc head on....thnx ahead of time or

 

I would assume that the rods would probally not hold up for long. after all they were made for only like 70 horsepower.Im gonna say you would see gains but thats would be your main problem is the rods and pistons

 

how much gain do you think i will have vs the zc

 

The only head that should go on the B6 is the HF one: it's designed for an 8-valve head. Mating a SOHC ZC head to it is pointless.

It's pretty cheap to get a SOHC ZC, why not just get the whole swap?

You will end up with some god-awful amalgamation of a motor that will be less powerful than you started out with.

 

see that wat i was just wondering i already have the sohc zc in my car but when i took the head off i just though of that and was just wondering if its worth it..thnx
