you would have to build the bottom end of all of them so it doesnt really matter..
d16z6, d16y8

no, it doesnt.
the z6 head flows better stock, so for that reason i would go with the d16z6. its also obdI

200-230 stock, safely.. but i've seen dynos for 250 on a stock z6. all depends on the tune and how long you want the motor to last

i just want it to be my boosted daily d...tuning i could probably get a friend from DNR Performance to tune my car the right way, and i want to stay with the 91 octane we californians have to deal with...lolz

z6 my buddy gots a turbo z6 with a mild engine build when he tuned it last year he made 340hp on 16lbs and 265hp on 9lbs but ive also seen z6 with a full build and turbo make just under 500hp the most ive seen a y8 make was around 450hp with basically the same setup and tune so i deffinately reccomend a z6 and yeah its odb1 so dorect swap no messing with rewiring or converting your harness over

z6 or dohc zc or a motor 95 on down in my book as there have been noted of the y8/y7 haveing oiling issues with the bottom ends and they are very mysterious issues too....

yea i prefer the z6 cuz mostley i see alot of people with boosted z6 and making pretty good numbers....when you say a mild build what do you mean by that what kind of stuff did he do to it...i just want it to be my daily d with alot of fun factor to it...hehe, im not going to street race (which BOYS & GIRLS IS VERY DANGEROUS!!) lolz..or drag. oh yea other question since i live here in sunny emission state how do i go about smogging my car when i get it boosted? since i want it to be my daily D?...hehe
