Cam Position Sensor Replacement My 02 T/A just turned over 46K miles and for the past couple of weeks the tach has been flaking out, dropping to zero like it was dead. I pulled the OBD codes and I'm getting P0342's. I spent the afternoon taking the intake off and just swapped out the cam position sensor with a new one. Two questions please:
1) I need the torque specs and pattern for the LS6 intake
2) Anything else I should be taking care of while I'm in here?

Suggest replacing your valley with the 04 LS6 valley cover. Has the integrated PCV, so you can get rid of all those PCV hoses AND prevent a future leaking mess all over your engine.
Don't have the torque specs off hand

PCV had vomited oil into intake. LS6 PCV and valley cover for the fix
Here is the valley cover installed
Crossover pipe routing figured out.
That little port in the front just needs a short vacuum line to go up to the throttle

Thank you Darth, that would really clean things up underhood.
Anyone have torque specs and sequence for the LS6 intake on late model LS1's?
Nice Firehawk twin bulge hood on your car...and your avatar.

Cam sensor replaced, tach works, no codes, starts up instantly like it always has in the past. Thank you both for the help and input. The LS6 valley cover upgrade is very cool. I'll put it on the list for a future upgrade but I'm back in business.
