Get the factory fork if you really want the factory fork. Trying to change out parts here and there is just not a sensible idea. Again you won't save money double buying parts. If you do have that specific bike and parts selection I wouldn't feel a huge need to upgrade the fork the Bomber Z1 is a good solid fork and I believe Marzocchi is now owned by the same folks who own Fox. What are you looking for specifically in the fork that say the Bomber Z1 couldn't give you?
all good points, the Z1 would be fine but I am
building from scratch, not buying complete.

Just looking to see if I could also build out a fork and save a few bucks and learn something along the way. Looks like you can, to an extent,
like the debonair upgrade to solo Yari would be good and doable! But sounds like you can’t make a lyrik from a sektor.
