Default 6.0L LQ4 and LS7 cam

I'm putting together an LQ4 for a swap to a Grand National. It will have an LS7 cam or at least I am looking to stick one in anyway. The cam choice is a long story and yes I know I could do much better but anyway.....

Will I need a different front cover to accept the cam sensor?

My understanding...right or wrong....is that I will need a different front cover to make that cam work in my Gen III LQ4. Is this true? If so what cover will I need and what sensor...cam or crank?

Thx

Yeah youll need the cover that accepts the cam sensor as well as a different top timing gear so the sensor can read it.

Also working on LQ4. Are you using the truck intake? If so, what covers will fit it?
