Default zex cam 59500 in a d15b?

Ive searched and found nothing. Heres the deal:

I have a Built d16z6 bottom end and jdm d15b head. the z6 and d15b heads are very much alike but different timing settings.

My question is: Could the Zex 59500 camshaft work in my head? anybody tried it in jdm d15b?

from what i knwo the heads are the same and the timing diff comes in effect due to the block. to now i would say since its on a Z6 block its the same...

however i will be installing my 59300 from my Z6 motor over to my D15b today or tomorrow...

really? i was thinking the same thing. The jdm d15b cam is pretty agressive but i couldnt find a place to buy the 59500.
