Questions about ls1 valvetrain before I purchase
I'm looking to take advantage of any black Friday/cyber Monday sales coming up....so I need to finalize my list.
All for 2001 stock LS1 out of a vette eventually getting a P1SC. My questions are:
will the springs and pushrods I already have work?
Are timing chain, gears, and oil pump needed?
Cam- planning on a brute speed blower cam.

Pushrods- already have comp 7796-16. Will these work?
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cca-7796-16
Springs- already have PAC-1218. Thoughts?
http://www.racingsprings.com/1200-Se...-1218/Item/206
locks- reuse stock
retainers- reuse stock
timing chain- which is most cost effective?
timing gears- needed?
oil pump- needed?
misc gaskets- rock auto.
missing anything?
Thanks guys.

Most cost effective timing chain is the LS2 style. For your application; I would go with the C5R.
