Default whats needed for the cam install

i have an 02 WS6 i already had mine done when i pretty much had barely any miles so i was able to skip a few item tp replace.

my friend has a 99 ls1 with 65+k miles on his car.. what does he need to replace at this time...

Thanks Steve

oh yeah we already have the cam and springs taken care of.. just the lil things now that we want to make sure get covered... say the timing chain prolly just going with the rollmaster single non adj.

we are going to put just a mild cam....

depends on the cam and the springs needed to run it... www.ls1howto.com has a good pre-install checklist.
