   It should be stamped on the end. IL & EX should be on the end of the shafts.
   
   Failing that, those part numbers should be pretty easy to find on their web page.

   76 is INLET and 77 is exhaust.

   you shouldnt be able to mix them up anyway, as the cams have offset lumps on them which hit part of the head casting if put in the wrong way round.

   Cheers Colin guess I fitted them right as they sat in nicely just trying to find out the best place for the pulleys to be timed if you can help out ?

   stock marks isnt a bad place to start, but for optimisation you cant beat a dyno to prove they are in optimum timing for your engine/exhaust set up.
