I hear the Y8 head is better flowing than the Z6 head. There's LOTS of posts and threads on this same question at this website , just do a search for it.
 Dunno if head options are limited for the 8V CX motors though, since these other heads are based off 16V motors.

off the top of my head the Y8 will give you higher compression...not sure if its the design or the use of the Y8 head gasket (thinnest for Ds). the Z6 can also be ported out a lot more than the Y8.
