if you have the whole z6 why not just swap the whole thing in?

mini me pushes more horse power than a z6. and has better compression.

the piston rings are gone in the motor and if i was going to do a swap like that i would prolly go with a b series witch i still may do cant decide maybe at a later date would the mini me be a better option for boost as well seein as it has better compression?

no. mini me motors have 10:1 or 11:1 compression. stock. better for na setups. 10:1 with z6 head.
around 11:1 with y8 head. stock.
