It will work.
Not sure on the cam gear though.

This would be similar to my PM3 head on 1.6 block. The belt I used was from the D16A6. The cam gear should still work since it has marks for Si/EX and non Si/EX engines.

Out of curiousity, what ECU are you using? And what is your ignition timing set at?
