Default b7 block/y7 head, what timing belt?

I'm probably going to throw together another motor in case my current one doesn't hold together and I figure I'll throw my y7 head on one of my old DX blocks to bump the compression to around 10:1. Anyway, any idea what timing belt I should use. I know for a mini-me swap you need the timing belt of the head right?? So I need a y7 belt then? Any help is appreciated.

Use the VX belt from the D15Z1. the B7 belt is too long.

I just did a d15b2, y8 head. Had to use a vx or z6 belt.

the block decks aren't different and there is no way anyone used a z6 or vx belt with a y8 head. rule of thumb when switching heads on a d series is to always use the belt for the head that is being put on. pretty sure that the y7 head and z6 head use the same cast so a z6 belt and y7 might have the same part number. that's in case you already have a z6 laying around.
