Default D16y7 to z6 Intake Manifold Swap Write Up?

I know we've got a DIY for a 7th gen, but i was wondering if anybody had a link to a nice DIY or Write-Up of how to swap from a stock y7 intake manifold to a z6 one?

yeah the z6 has the IACV on the IM while the y7 has it on the TB. I talked to Marty about it and he said if you get an IACV plug and then just use the one that you didnt plug you should be all set.

anyone on the DIY?
