You can use a Z6 dizzy with some modification to the ear/ears. Its not the right way (Nor do I recommend it), but it works.

he has a z6 and a z6 dizzy, what he needs to do is cut the plug off of it and splice on the obd2 plug (easy all wires are same color)

Better switch the oil pump housing from the Y8 to the Z6 for the crankshaft fluctuation sensor and add a knock sensor if your still OBD2 or you'll be in limp. That or convert to OBD1 and run off of OBD1 ecu.
