considering the blocks are the same bar a few little things i think the vtr one will fit, suppose my best bet is to just take both of them along to KrisB when he does my cambelt, but i cant be bothered to pay my mate for another pump! lol

no problem. also count the teeth and check diameter of both before fitting.
if they are both the same and new one fits snugly i would go ahead and fit it.
