what oil pump and timing chain
pulled the motor outta the bird today and finally found out what the knock was in the motor the timing chain was about to fall off it had so much play in it you could move the chain back and forth 1/2-3/4 of an inch so im looking for a good replacement chain and while ive got the motor out and its so easy to replace the oil pump now im gonna do it so what oil pump and timing chain set should i go with.

I've got no complaints with my ported LS6 pump that I bought off a member here. I also went with the LS2 chain because it's just simple and cheap, and as other stated, a lot beefier than the stocker.

Won't be long 'till I do my cam swap and I was thinking of upgrading the chain while I'm in there. Will the LS2 chain fit on there with no other modifications?

Hey there dude. I've just done the pump/chain swap too and what a friggin nightmare havin to set up the clearances between the pump body and the drive gear! I also have to modify the cover, can you help us out with where to grind etc? How did you centralise the cover to make sure the seal was dead concentric? Cheers, Mark.
