i'm not sure about the dohc, but the z6 is suppose to flow a little better than the y8. I've seen big numbers out of both though.

z6 bottom end with jdm d15b-imo best single cam z6=more oil flow d15b=agressive ass cam safetly will go to 8000 rpms

but really got to d-series.org there is so much to learn off that site if you plan to just throw another d series in
