the z6 is from the 92-95 ex/si and it is less of a headache to install than the y8, because its all obd1 already, the y8 is a slightly bigger intake manifold but not much, and if you are going to install turbo the z6 is alot more sufficent,

block guard on an all-motor setup? Why bother? Also why a y8 head? The y7 head is one of the better flowing heads out there. Sure, it's non VTEC, but who cares. Set it up for high end end don't let it drop out of power.
