What is the number that is stamped on the Cam gear? I have one that is "0" and another that is "-2". Can I use the cams interchangeably when rebuilding my engine or do I have to go with the same gear number?

Thx,
SD

The number indicates the gear "size" which differs due to manufacturing tolerances. Gear on crank and cam are ment to both have the same no for longest life and less noise.
I dont know how important that is...someone else might know...
