I feel sick. I've never done a cam swap in an LS1 before. I was following the instructions on that LS1howto site to the "T" I successfully changed all the springs (thanks to the kick *** Larry tool) I just lost my job and I can't afford to be buying **** like this.

I figured I'd be all smart and call a dealer in California (I'm in Michigan) but I missed them by 5 minutes. I wonder if free long distance on a cell phone includes Hawaii?

If the one on the left is an Fbody pulley, which it probably is. You can have it for $10 + shipping. I bought it for my vette, my pulley fell on the cradle and chipped like yours, but this is what I got instead of a vette pulley.

Is there any way to find out for sure if it is or not? Where are you located in in Livonia, MI, 48152

yeah that's an f-body one.
You could also try chipping off a similar piece on the other side of the pulley
btw - its just a plain ol' pulley - LS1's are "internally balanced"...
