RE: Cam Gear questions...

The notch on the cam gear is to help you align the gear onto the cam. it should only go on one way as there should be a notch also on the camshaft... I hope that's what you're talking about.. pics would help greatly bigthumbup

Hope you bought a woodruff key because the Skunk2 doesn't come with one.

I got my key from Honda. You'll have to tell them it's for a '00 Si.

It's #22 in the picture below.

Also if it's going onto a Y8 Cam to advance the timing 4.5 degrees. The Skunk2 Cam gear is for all D-series engines and there is a timing difference between the A6-Z6 Heads and the Y8 heads. Here's a write-up:
