buy it, it will give you more power due to the fact that the y8 head has more compression than the z6 head, plust the fact that the y8 head you are buying is ported and polished will give you more air flow. the distriubtor will not line up right but you can get it to work

The P28 (z6) head is by far the best flowing SOHC D-series head. The .4 c/r different and port job may sound good, But it all really comes down to is how much is it going to cost?
