All std 900 and 1000 cams are more or less the same lift give or take around .2 to .3mm.
Mk2 cams are around .4 higher lift which is nothing that will cause your problem.

Depending on wear, which model and wether inlet or exhaust , std 'Z' cams range from around 7.7mm to 8.4mm lift (subtract base circle from lobe height).
If they are in that 8mm range then they are std .
