Yep! LS2 chain and ported LS6 oil pump. That's all you need.

That's what I run on my cammed DD.

I'd run the SLP Oil Pump (modified Melling) and a JP Performance Billet Single or Double Row Timing Set (double will fit without mods with the SLP pump). I prefer the billet gears with torrington bearing and adjustability vs stock gears. The chain, as long as it of LS2 quality, is enough.

You could also do a ported LS6 and just run the Billet Single JP chain. TSP, Katech, SDPC all sell good LS6 oil pumps. The TSP and SDPC are shimmed for higher pressure.

And I would recommend the JP set over the LS2 chain. The LS2 chain with new GM gears (highly recommended) costs more than even the JP double roller...

on high performance applications I'm not a big fan of the LS2 chain last one i did it had some slop nothing bad but i didnt like it my own personal motor i ran a Manley double roller with the Torrington bearing so it dosent chew up the cam plate.

as far as a oil pump a stock one will be just fine the high volume ones tend to wanta suck the pan dry at high rpm plus most dont fit behind the stock timing cover without doing some cutting.

whos the best place to order from?

i guess ill keep looking into a timing set, but pretty sure im gonna do a ported ls6 pump

For what you wanna do check a regular ls6 pump, never know the difference between the two, but if got the extra cash go for it

I ordered exactly what JakeFusion mentioned to you. (Haven't received it yet, so no first hand experience) I was also told that this setup will not have any clearance issues by SpeedInc.com That's where I purchased my setup from and they seem to have very competitive pricing, if not better.

Yeah. The SLP pump is supposed to be pretty nice. And the SLP timing chain is nothing more than the JP Performance double with SLP's ridiculous markup. You could do a new LS6 pump or Melling M295 OE replacement if you wanted to save some cash.

WS6store has the JP Double and SLP Pump for like 256 shipped.

Will the LS2 JP Performance Billet Gear Set (Double) fit without modifications with the stock Oil Pump? I saw it on WS6store. Or would I need the LS1/LS6 one?

BTW OP, WS6store is selling the aforementioned timing sets for $89.95.

couldnt find it on their site, got a link?

Yeah, here are the links:

This one is for the LS2 one

This one is for the LS1/LS6 one

http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...r-set-double-/

Both are the same price, but not sure which one you'll need. I'm sure someone will enlighten us, because I need to order one ASAP for my heads/cam swap too.

52 pages worth of sales... Mine included. LS2 HD chain with billet gears. The crank gear is a 2 piece so it's adjustable. Came with a torrington bearing as well, which was a plus.

Personally I'm running a ported LS6 from TSP and couldn't be happier.

Dr. Whigham, what is the difference between the JP Performance Billet Gear timing set and the one you have?

JakeFusion

iTrader: (7)

Yank is out of stock.

And either the LS1 or LS2 will work. The LS2 chain is for a 24X reluctor and 1X gear. It just has the provision for the camshaft sensor which the LS2 requires. The LS1 chain doesn't. If you ever plan to run an LS2 block in the future, the LS2 chain will be okay. If not, just get the one designed for our cars.

Thanks for that info JakeFusion. I guess I'll just get the LS2 one since it will work just fine, plus, if I ever decide to go with a LS2 block, I'll be good to go.

wondering about the fitment of the jp performance ls2 gear set(double) and a ls6 oil pump myself, would there need to be any grinding or any other special things done for them to work?
