I am going to be doing a head and cam swap on my 2002 SS, I got a rollermaster double roller timing chain, TSP ported ls6 oil pump, and a powerbond u/d pulley. My question is, will i have any serious clearance issues between the oil pump and the front timing cover? I heard you have to do some grinding with a dremel, is that all? Also will my powerbond pulley need to be machined to work with the double roller timing chain?

 

TTT. Anybody have experience with these parts?

 

I have a rollmaster double with a tsp ported oil pump and everything fits just fine. I installed everything when I was building my forged moter and I put the timing cover on and rolled the engine over by hand 20/30 times. Then I removed the timing cover to make sure the chain wasn't hitting the timing cover. Every thing was good so I put the cover back on and was good to go.

 

With that combo you should be fine without having to clearance the cover and no milling on the balancer. But, like Conan said above, it's always good to check everything to ensure proper fitment!

 

I forgot to add I use a ATI super damper crank pully and I haven't had to mill the hub to fit deeper into the engine due to the oil pump shims.

 

i have the double roller and tsp ported ls6 pump and no issues at all. everything is fine after a year now.

 

Thanks for all your replies, I'm glad to hear that this combination will work, I searched for over an hour the other day, and kept finding post that went back and fourth about the double roller. I will defiantly double check the fitment though when i install it.
