y8 intake manifold on z6
has anyone here swapped a d16y8 intake manifold onto a d16z6? i have a bare y8 intake manifold and i put it on my z6 head and first thing i noticed/problem i ran into is the iac valve didnt fit and it looks like the fuel rail is'nt going to either. anyone know how to do this cause i know it can be done. thanx....

Re: y8 intake manifold on z6
Pretty much, Just change out the sensors. The intake manifold will bolt right up since it's still in the D-series Family. Use your Z6 throttle body though so you can keep that sensor.
