Default Changing oil pump, what else?

My oil pump crapped out on me so I need to replace it. What other mods should I get done. I'm assuming cam and timing chain? My car is stock and I would have liked to keep it that way. I probably would do a couple of bolt ons but now that I have to go into the engine what else should I do? valvetrain?

If you want to keep the car stock, then do that. If you don't want to do change cams, don't do it, because it's not a cheap venture. You'll need to upgrade the valve train, and you'll need a tune. You'll also need headers to take advantage of a larger cam. Just put a ls2 timing chain on, and maybe an underdrive pulley since you'll have to pull the other one off.
