ok.. i did this swap already on my hatchie!!!

- a6 bottom end/z6 head, the a6 distributor will either be advanced a little or retarded A LOT
- you can only use the top dist. bolt and the bolt closest to the front end
- you don't need the z6 intake mani, its just recommended for more air flow = more hp
- you can use the z6 distributor, just have to re-wire the distributor clips so you can use it (a6 distributor plugs on the z6 distributor)
- you will have 9.9:1 CR if you use the z6 headgasket if you use the a6 you will have 9.7:1 CR
- you CAN use the RPM activated switch but i wouldn't recommend it, get a Apexi V-AFC or Fields VTEC controller
- and use the same header that you would use with the a6, z6 header flange is differenet than the a6 so the a6 downpipe won't bolt up properly.


one last thing: BE SURE TO TAKE OUT THE OIL CONTROL JET IN THE BLOCK!!!!! OR ELSE VTEC WON'T ENGAGE PROPERLY WHICH THE ENGINE WON'T BE AS COOL!

anything more? AIM me: Team DraZtiK
