rebuilding LS1 ok so im having my ls1 rebuilt and i got the rear main seal and everything but they only thing i need is the cam plate in the rear of the motor and front i searched every where and cant find them maybe because its not called the cam plate or something but can someone help me out with this.
There is only (1) cam retainer plate I know of on a LS1 engine & it's on the front. You slide the cam in & then the retainer plate followed by top timing chain gear. Each of which have 3 bolts. The only cover on the back of a LS1 block that I'm aware of is a rear engine cover with seal.
What he said ^^^ rear main cover with seal and the front has the retainer plate and the timing cover with seal. You can slide the cam back in to the engine and hear it hit the timing cover before the retainer plate is installed.
