Did you remember to use a y7/y8 cam gear (or adjustable one)?

When you mate a z6 head to a b7 block, the mechanical timing will be off by 1/2 tooth. You will need a y7/y8 or adjustable gear to correct for the offset.

Yes, 1/2 tooth can make a noticeable difference.

What do you mean by "not to have no throttle at all"?

If you type more clearly, you will get more help.

like it can make a diffrence if the timing is off but that will not keep it from havin dead throttle

and what i mean my dead throttle means the car will turn on and idle but when u give it gas it has no throttle response what so ever...
