What timing chain and oil pump
I am about to start re assembling my motor which consist of a stock 5.7, ported and oversized valve 5.3 heads, a custom spec cam and was wondering what timing chain I should use along with which oil pump. I've heard that the ls2 chain has a little more slack than stock.

Im running a double roller along with the SLP pump and love the setup personally. A lot of people say its over kill, but after spending all the money on a new engine. I personally like the insurance of a double chain.

I'm going with GM LS2 with my H/C rebuild. Theres some good info if you search a bit, but what I remember is that the stock piece is quality. Then its your decision if you wanna go with extra piece of mind, unless you wanna rev around 7K+ 50X a day..then you should go with something beefier.
