UPDATE:-

I've got a new camshaft - and hopefully, after a long wait, the followers / rocker arms should arrive tomorrow morning.

Question:-

I read somewhere (possibly in Haynes manual) that the number stamped on the end of the camshaft should match with the replacement.

My old camshaft has a 6

My new camshaft has an 11

Is gonna be a problem?

What do these mystery numbers mean?

(Because now is the time for cow - I can get an exchange as I haven't fitted the replacement yet)
