D16Z6
Well, I have found out that my mechanic put in a d16z6 when I expected the same engine as the car had, which was a d16y8.
Whats the difference and what would I be better off with? Also, how much more work did they have to do to put this engine in? |
RE: D16Z6
Z6 is better. Head and block are both better.
Work was the same. |
RE: D16Z6
I think the Y8 intake mani is better, but I'm not sure... I'd say keep the Z6
|
RE: D16Z6
D16Y8: 127HP @ 6600 rpm 107 lb/ft @ 5500 rpm Compression Ratio- 9.6:1
D16Z6: 125HP@ 6600 rpm 106 lb/ft @ 5200 rpm Compression Ratio- 9.2:1 I think, if I'm not mistaken, the Z6 gets much better gas mileage. |
RE: D16Z6
d16z6>all y motors imo. i had yet another y7 toast near every bearing in the bottom end, this makes 4 y motors ive owned do the exact same thing. i want to know how your mechanic got the CAS wired up as the z6 has no provisions for it on the oil pump.

RE: D16Z6
Alright, called him up and got the information.
Y8 Head and z6 block |
RE: D16Z6
Z6 head and intake mani are better I believe.

RE: D16Z6
Well, the Y6 says it's supposed to get 31-38 mpg, but my Z6 gets 40 mpg hwy? Is that solely because of intake, headers, and exhaust? Oh well.

RE: D16Z6
40+ is not uncommon on them. Keep in mind also that your car is lighter than '96-'00s. The main difference is the cylinder head design. Everything else is fairly similar.
