If you want this head for your Z900, you to use your "OLD" Z900 camshaft. Because the MK2 camshaft sprockets have 2 teeth more.

Glad I asked Mick. Can you use the Camshaft shell bearings from the old head as well, or do you need to put new ones in?

If you put the shell bearings at the same place to the new head,and use your cams, i think it is no problem.

But may be there is another problem.
If he sand blasted the seat of the shell bearings, it is possible that he erode the surface.So the seat of the shells is not having exact size.

I think I might wait until a A4 head comes up. But putting that aside do you think, if it was the correct head would this be good value?
