Ok i need to know what timing belt 2 use with the A6 block.Y8 head combo
OK so im kinda lost at the timing belt deal. i asked Renr about the timing belt and he said with the Zc bottom ( SOHC ) and the Y8 head. he said to buy the Z6 belt..why i dont know. but i searched and found information that states i should use the blet that corresponds to the head. is this true? i hate to have to return the belt to the dealership again.
thanks for your info. P.s I searched... I need to know before i start with the assembly of the head and the block. do i use the A6 bolts or do i need the y8 head bolts? or can i use the a6 BOLTS WITH HOW MANY WASHERS? oops caps lock owns.... |

hey dipshit read the title ..it says SOHC ZC which is the same as the A6. anyway i got the Y8 head and the SOHC ZC block ( same as the A6 ) now my other question is that i was told by RenR to use the Z6 timing belt but at the same time i found another thread where he says to use the timing belt that corresponds to the head. im confused.... |

usually, go with the head studs for the Head. And you'd probably be alright with the Z6 TB, but cant' say for sure

mini me take a vtec timing belt either the z6 or y8 (they are the same)

Re: Ok i need to know what timing belt 2 use with the A6 block.Y8 head combo
No, they aren't the same. If you are using the Y8 head you have to use the Y8 timing belt. Always use the timing belt that corresponds with the head. :)

everyone who says same head bolts as the head.....have you ever done this swap? i've done it 2 times and from my experience i used the a6 head bolts for all except for the back left (right in front of the vtec solenoid) i used the y8 head bolt, with success. the y8 bolts had half the thread that the a6 bolts. as for the timing belt i used the z6, it was kind of tricky to get on but it worked.

Yes, I have done the swap, hell, I'm the guy that did the writeup for it for HMT. I don't know about the bolts because I just used ARP's, but if you are using the Z6 head, use the Z6 belt, if you are using the Y8 head, use the Y8 belt, they are different.

Re: Ok i need to know what timing belt 2 use with the A6 block.Y8 head combo
the belts are the same. same part number. ive done the swap. z6 arps work with the a6 block
