Default Need Help. Those with Double Rollers

I am swapping over parts to my new LS6, I used a rollmaster double roller and now I am installing my oil pump and it is touching the chain. Am I supposed to be using shims behind the oil pump?

I really need to get this done ASAP. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

If it is touching the oil pump it will have to be shimed, you should have recieved some with your double roller setup.

Do a search. There is a post from last year with specs and drawings of the 2 shims that can you have made. Good luck on finding the shims without buying another pump. Don't know if it's possible or not.

Yeah, that's the link I was thinking of. For some, reason the drawings are missing though from Cyphur's post.
