I have the option of putting in a y8 cam in my z6 head and I am wondering if it is worth it? Do they share the same specs?

I think the grind are the same...but TDC is like 3 degrees off from each other. Nothing to be gained by swapping...only do if the need be

The grind is slightly different and TDC is off. Not worth the effort in my opinion.
