does anybody have a pic of a stock z6 cam gear?? I think i have a different sohc gear on my z6 and i can't get my timing right. I'm supposed to have a mark at about 7 o'clock on the gear to line up with the cover mark and i don't, i think this is why my timing is off? any way to compensate or figure out the correct position with another gear? please help. tia

there may be a diffrent in key position, since you need to change the timing to put a Y8 cam in a Z6 head

D16z6 gear has the face of the gear flush w/ the outside of the gear. D16y8 gear has the face in the center of the gear, like a zero offset rim with a deep lip.

yea, referring to those pics i have the wrong gear. If you think of it as a rim i have a 5 spoke gear with two marks at 3 and 9 o'clock and no mark at 7 o'clock to align the timing mark on the back timing cover.

this is the gear that i have on the z6 motor now:


is there anything i can do or a way that i can line this gear up to correct z6 specs??? please help me out?
