Default b7 or a6 block with a z6 head

I have a 93 dx that im putting a z6 head on but im not sure what block i want to use. I have a b7 and a6 and havent been able to find a topic comparing the two blocks with the z6 head. Most of what i am finding id for the b7 block but let me know what you think.

Put the b7 pistons into the a6 block. You will have mid 11 compression ratio.
