Lsx contacting cam position sensor....
Lsx contacting cam position sensor.... Anyone else check this out on their motor?
Ran into the problem with it ealier today on a milled head car.
Tried it out on a stock headed motor and it pressed down tight on the clip for the sensor and the intake wasnt tight yet.
Anyone seen this?

Not with mine; however, the heads on the bolts that hold the plate down under the intake had to be ground down a bit because the LSX manifold as opposed to the LS1 does not have a recessed area for the manifold to sit over those bolts. This made the manifold sit up on those bolts (teetering )and prevented it from sitting flush and sealing properly which was causing a vacuum leak.
Fixed the problem on the car by trimming the sensor and the plug and the intake stopped leaking.
It has the new bolts on the valley cover.
The car picked up 3 rwhp and 12 tq after it was sealed right.
