the z6/y8 debate is highly argued and totally Ghey

its a situation of a 6 of 1 half dozen of the other kinda thing, either one will work great over any other factory D series IM so my suggestion is to use whichever you can get cheaper
I have a zc and it looks the biggest but, I guess it wouldn't bolt up to any normal d.
Negative... ZC manifold will NOT in anyway, shape, or form bold to a SOHC head.

Stock for Stock I feel that the Z6 motor are the fastest, but a ported and polished non Vtec head with 3 or 5 angle cut seats is gonna be better than a stok Vtec head. There is a lot of power to be release front any Honda motor, SOHC or DOHC.

just save up and get a obd 0 b16 and save yourself the headache.
(B is good but K is better )
