Default Torquer V2 Install...is an Adjustable Timing Chian Set necessary?
Well? I already bought a LS2 Timing Chain, but do I need to ditch that and buy an Adjustable Chain Set?

I'm also installing 5.3L Heads (milled to 60cc)

It isn't necessary unless you want to degree the cam yourself as opposed to installing it dot to dot, I believe this is correct. Did TSP say you were ok with PTV clearances with that setup?

You'd be best off getting an adj setup and degreeing your cam, but it's not nessisary. Definatly a good idea though with how tight that setup's going to be.

it will be close, it did help me out having a adjustable one.

I would sell the ls2 and have some peace of mind. It would suck to get in and find out you need one with your car torn down.
