i'd just go ahead with the z6 ..... IMO good oil pump, tuning is a little more simple(from what i heard) if you didn't sell the y8 i'd say just swap the intake manifold and call it a day...i've owned lots of the y8's and z6's .....i'm sure some people will say just swap the y8 head on the z6 bottom end but i don't think its worth it...for what your goals are
