There is a couple differences as there was 2 cases being run that year. I would count the # of nuts needed on the chain box cover then you would know if it was later or earlier case.
The tensioners wont work on the chain covers are aluminum of the early style. Make sure you have safety guards on the pre carrera tensioners Bruce |

10 and 11 make it the later style so you can use the Carrera option but you might need to find the longer right cam oil line because I dont think they are part of the package as they use to be.
