That would be about $600 in machine work alone.......

I'll do it with a hole saw and a drill press.

Also it depends if you can get a homie discount or not.

Re: D16Z6 crank on a D15

Is there a real benefit to this I'm missing? Why not just pick up a z6 block for like $100 or maybe less?

Now a D15 crank in a D16 block, longer rods, good for NA build.

Nah, just raise the deck on a Z6 with longer rods. Easier, cheaper, and will make more power.

I have no clue how much it would cost to deck a z6, would it really be less?

If you're me in wisconsin you're lucky to find a z6 for less than $600. I can get a smoker with no distributor for $250. Other than that they are pricey. I dont see how it could cost so much to have the b7 main's bored out to 58mm.
