in short- will a stock camgear from a d15b7 , or any other d series give me the correct timing(all markings are lined up and correct) on my d16z6?? my camgear had the woodruff key break off in the cam, and i am looking for another gear, so need to know this.

 

all d series are interchangable. all b series are interchangable.

 

ok i should have rephased the thread title- are there any other d series camgears that when put on a z6 w/ z6 cam give correct timing? like if you swap between z6 and y8 the timing is off like 4.7 degrees or whatever... im wondering if there is a stock gear that wont be off

 

a Z6 and Y8 keyways are off by 2 degrees, so yes, they are different.

If I remember correctly static timing on the D16z6 is 16.5 BTDC, and on the D16y8 it is 18.5 BTDC.
