Why not just keep the d16z6 head and just use the y8 intake manifold? But I do believe its a combo but cant remember how many studs from each motor

When I swapped a z6 head onto y7 block, I bought some ARP headstuds for the y7 but ran into the same problem, 2 studs (one on far left, far right of the intake side) are different, I had to use 2 stock headstuds... hopefully that helps

I'm pretty sure you'll have to use 1 Y8 bolt on it.. and if you do this you do know that your timing is going to be a little off right??

lol i have a Y8block witha a Z6 head and we had the problem, with the studs not going in right (because we had all D16Y* Studs). We fixed it by forging a piece to make up for the difference so that it would torque down.

well it was all y8 and 1 z6 with your y8 block and z6 head.. with his it should be all z6 and 1 y8 since he is putting the y8 head on a z6 block....

9 head studs/bolts for the block you're using, and 1 head stud/bolt specific to the head you're using.
