8valve=1 camshaft
16valve=2 camshafts
and i would imagine you need the 2 as it says DOHC on that paper that means (Double Over Head Cam)
are you buying them out right or sending yours off for re profiling?
i would recommend an adjustable pulley with cams, i have a piper adjustable vernier pulley so that it can be adjusted more accurately when set up

Thanks mac I agree also a new cam from a blank is better than reprofiled may be they do an exchange?? So would reduce the price a little??
