Default A6 head on Z6 block?

i kno the head and block combo will work together but i have a question concerning the oil jet.

on the non vtec motors there were oil jets installed on the block

on vtec motors there are no oil jets


will i need to put an oil jet on the z6 block in order to properly supply oil to the A6 head?

---- that.....the z6 is already low, its 9.2:1 and on top of that if u do the a6 with z6 its gonna loose power....sucky combo...might as well just do a straight up z6 or mini-me

Install he oil jet on the Z6 block in the same place as the D16a6 block and you should be fine.
