Default Z6 vs Y8 Cam Sprocket??

I read somewhere that the Y8 cam sprocket's keyway is offset Unlike the Z6's, where its centered. The question I have yet to know is if I can use a cam sprocket designed for the D16A6/D15B7 on a D16Z6 without having to worry about timing issues and it being dead-on?? Also do these cam sprockets share the same number of teeth??


TIA Serdar ,
Here is a pic of the proposed 6-bolt cam sprocket in mind:


Its a Megan Racing unit, I Know you guys love pics
