Re: need some serious help, have cash
never mind about the motor got it fixed but still need info on where the PCV valve is and the IAC valve is in a d16z6.

the pcv valve is attached to the intake manifold near the #3 runner, it's the black tube from the intake manifold that leads down to the back of the block. the PCV valve itself is the plastic piece that sits in the intake manifold. the IAC valve connects to the back of the intake manifold near the throttle body. there is one sensor that leads to it and 2 coolant lines.

Re: need some serious help, have cash
on my 95 cx intake the PCV valve is right were it should be, but on my z6 intake their is no PCV valve in the intake or even a place for it. Also on my cx intake their is this sensor that bolts into the intake on the #1 runner it looks like some sort of temp sensor, but it also has the one that you said was the IAC (the one next to the TPS sensor with the 2 coolant lines and one plug) I've tried looking in my book but it mostly talks about testing and the pictures suck any help would be nice.

Re: need some serious help, have cash
i know you are wrong about the pcv valve because i've had about 3 different z6 manifolds in my car from motor or head swaps and they PCV was always in the exact same place. if the sensor on the runner is white then thats probably an intake air temp. sensor. the IACV is the one near the throttle body on the back of the intake manifold for sure though.

IAC- (on back w/ 2 coolant lines going to it and one pluge)
IAT- (white plug on runner)
EPV- ( evaporator purge valve, attached to the back of the manifold on the far right side. It has 2 vacuum lines runing to it,1 from the manifold to the sensor and then 1 from the sensor to the charcole canister)
The PCV system has one vacuum line coming from the black box under the intake manny running to the PCV valve itself, and then from the pcv to the vacuum port on the intake manifold.
The intake manifold should have a hole inbetween 2 of the runners, that is where you mount a PCV valve
Also the head is not a direct swap. You have to do a few things in order for it to work right. Do some research on it
