get the package. and get cam bolt and gasket kit, and a pulley, and a ported ls6 oil pump, and a ls2 timing chain

To change a cam you'll need:
Cam
Springs (either 918 Comp Cam) or PRC duals
7.425 Comp Cam push rods
Basic cam change gasket kit (with crank bolt)
Ls2 timing chain (if you have over 50K miles on your motor)

You'll need a spring change tool, oil, filter, assembly lube, RTV gasket sealant, 10mm ratchet wrench, breaker tube and bar (to beak loose crank bolt), pulley removal tool, assorted sockets and wrench.

As a guide read http://www.ls1howto.com multiple times.

once it is finished you still have to tune (wideband dyno being the best)

So in all budget at least $1500 to do it properly, along with lots of patience and a first aid kit for your poor hands

slow trap

i second,if you have the funds now would be a good time for an ls2 chain,ud pulley and a ls6 ported pump.

My car has 50,000 miles on it and the guy at Thunder said dont need to worry about it, but I still probably should get the chain.
