ls2 timing chain question hey guys so im gonna be doing a heads and cam swap for my 2000 z28 and have a question, i plan on replacing the stock ls1 chain for the ls2 chain but i see i can either purchase the chain by itself or get the chain and gear combo, do i need to have that gear in order for the ls2 chain to fit on my car or can i just slip in on my stock ls1 timing gear?

The only reason I know of to replace the gears are 1. You're existing gears have some wear or 2. You are going to run a 4th gen camshaft in which case You need the cam gear so the cam sensor which is located in the timing cover on 4th gens .
