heads from USA are not same in other countries, cam is big time smog regulated part.
a 16v head world wide uses many different cams. and some have distributor gears that remove. there are like 3 or more distributors used too....world wide, on 1 engine.
are you importing head from outside usa or canada?
if the lobes are ok sure, you can use them , (profiles too vary by country)
but the cam bearings must fit. use plastigage, see the clearance there, to spec. the caps are not 100 ft./lbs as silly GM(GE0) book says. it's inch./lbs.
i'd bet that head is china clone?, did you read all codes on the side of the head, suzuki codes? (just a guess, i can see it and inspect it)
the head codes are also suzuki secret. only rumors what they mean..... but are REAL.
