Some questions regarding my future motor build Alright so I'm trying to get a a build sheet together for an LS1 me and my dad will be doing, and that I have a couple questions about that I think some of you could help me with. I have searched, but I really didn't find anything lol.
For reader information, I'm pretty dead set on using a stock bottom end LS1, stock displacement, (it will be rebuilt) along with purchasing an MS4 cam and PRC 227cc heads as a package from TSP, with the use of an LS6 intake. Link to cam and head package as follows:

My question is: Which push-rod length and timing chain would you recommend to go with the head and cam package? I was told to replace the stock timing chain with an LS2 one, but with the options to choose from in the drop down box my brain was immediately fried. And should an aftermarket ported oil pump or high pressure option be necessary for my application? Valve spring selection help would also be appreciated. Thanks!
