Hi Matt,

Just forget that it is a 1.5 head. Related parts should be used for a 1.6 engine, eg gaskets, cam sprockets etc.
Both heads are similar but make sure it is from the same engine model.

Hi Kosautoworks,

B and Z are different engine variants, eg 1.5 and 1.6.

6 = market the engine is destined for.
