^^^^^^^^ AWESOME THREAD !!!! i am in the process of doing mine heres what i ordered and price

to save u a lil reading
yes use the Z6 head and intake manifold if available
also use the Distributor
im going to use a P28 Ecu for mine

Price and parts to buy
Z6 Timing belt $45
y8 Head Gasket $28
Z6 plug wires $20
Z6 Distrubutor $ ???

(recommend)
new Z6 distributor cap and rotor
plugs
Z6 wires

Keep in mind if your thinking of boosting (pending on the pistons u r using) stock compression on this build would be 10.5-10.9 CR

Also if u do decide to do it do what i did Print the above link and Read entire thing a few times to make sure u miss nothing

My opinion and estimate on prices (my price was cheaper i got hook ups LOL)
