z6 question

- Thu Aug 11, 2011 5:23 pm #267166 Ok, I don't normally mess with many sohc's. A friend of mine wants to buy my y8 head and use on his z6 block, I know this set up has been done a lot, as far as the head bolts is my only question. He needs to use the z6 bolts other that the 2 ones in the back corner right ? They should be the y8 ones witch I have?


Just looking for clarification

z6 head bolts/studs are all the same length, so that one sticks up higher.

i think the y7/y8 sets have 1 short bolt.
