Parts on the way....
Parts on the way.... Ok, the car is my daily driver and I'm doing a cam swap (Torquer v.2). Just want to make sure I didn't forget anything before getting started.
What I bought:
-TSP Camshaft Kit w/ 918 springs and hardened pushrods
-LS2 Timing Chain
-LS6 Ported Oil Pump
-GM Gasket/Bolt Kit
Did I overlook anything?

Did you get an o-ring for the oil pump? Always want to replace that, and although our sales guys are usually really good about making sure you get one with the pump, it's worth checking on to be sure!

ok sweet... this will be my first cam-swap on an ls1 so hopefully everything goes relatively smooth. oh and i haven't gotten the parts in the mail yet but when i do i will definitely check for that o-ring. thanks!
good luck man. Are you using the cheater bars or chancing it?
i didnt get one from texas speed when i ordered mine go to your local o'riellys or auto place store and just get an oil pump o-ring they are really cheap, and make sure you use the cheater bars to hold up those lifters i wouldnt chance it!

ooh good call on the cheater bars. totally overooked that. but is there something cheaper that i could use instead of the $100 bars? (besides the magnets) maybe just a couple pieces of round steel from home depot? or is the one from TR pretty much the only option? i just feel like im getting fucked but in the end i'd rather pay 100 than lose a lifter down into never-never land

You can use 5/16" wooden dowels from Home Depot as well.
