Default Skunk2 cam gears universal?

i have made another thread about timing but i did a lil more research.

seems like people are selling teh skunk2 cam gear as a universal cam gear from 88-00.

this cant be right? i konw the z6 and y8 head hvae different timing.

anyone verify this?

Looks like cam bolt is to be torqued to 30 ft/lbs using red loctite.
Allen adjusting bolts should be torqued to 6-7 ft/lbs using a 1/4" torque wrench.

I have a newer cam gear from Skunk2 and it actually is universal. It has separate timing marks for the Z6 and Y8 heads (opposing ends).
