What horsepower are you going for.. That will determine what internals you need..

Just search around for info about it.. A mini-me is putting a d16z6 or d16y8 vtec head on a d15 non-vtec block.. If your in the process of learning about turbo setups and tuning I would just use the stock block..

You can learn on that and when you blow it up another motor is very cheap.. Wait until you have learned how its all done before you go and build up a motor..

I agree. The stock block and head is more than good enough for 160-180hp.

A stock d16z6 can take a lot of abuse with good fuel management and tuning. BoostedED9 made 302whp on a stock Z6 and ladysman made 262whp on a stock Z6. I think there are a couple other people that made 250 ish horsepower on stock Z6's? I made over 216whp on my stock Z6 and have been raping the **** out of it for the last 6 months.
