If you're talking stock manifolds the Z6 flows a lot better. It's the same overall length so if you can get one cheap it just swaps on. Just don't expect any noticeable power gains though.

Well if its a stock motor then the z6 header would be better, although im not certain that it would fit if the motor was a 100% B7.

Changing from one stock mani to another will not do much of anything. Best way to go is to get a real header, even an EBay knock off will flow well.

well you can get his z6 one, it should flow better than your b7 one. But usually aftermarket ones are better.
