Use the a6 head, From what ive heard(via the interweb) the a6 is the best flowing head, The only thing that makes the z6 in better, is the cam. So get yourself a crower cam, and valvetrain, and rev that bitch to the moon!!!!!! For a tuner, I would take the trip up to NJ and visit Xenocron, on the east cost, he is the man.

I have a a6 head that I had a stock rebuild on it, drove on it for about 4k miles, and then I poped a hg. Took it into the machine shop, milled it 5thou, and never put it back on the car. Its still sitting under my bench if you want to buy it, just lmk.
