IT would be in your best interest to do the timing chain and the oil pump upgrade. The timing chain could be an LS2 or one of the many double rollers. I think that New Era has their double roller on sale for 99 bucks. <-------- hell of a deal!
7.4 on unmilled heads or even 7.45.
If they are milled you might be looking at a different length.7.3,7.35's
What heads and cam are you thinking of getting?

Lotsa people have gone the TSP route! You should get a bunch of feedback.

I was thinking of getting the Texas Speed Torquer v.2 Camshaft,

Now which rods should I get the 7.400, 7.375 or 7.350 ???

Should I go with the rollmaster double roller adjustable timing set ??? or single non adjustable.

The oil pump the offer is the TWP LS6 Ported fuel pump ???

I have 99 Vette M6 with 3.90's, kooks, vararam, LS1 Edit, are my major mods.

I was wondering is this where I should be heading also.........

I appreciate it

Thanks

I know that Predator Z has been very fond of that cam and had sweet results. Shoot him a PM and see what he suggests as far as pushrod. I believe that it would be 7.4 or 7.45's

No need for the adjustable timing set unless you're going to advance or retard the cam. Single, LS2 or single aftermarket is fine.
Ported LS6 oil pump is fine too.

Your 3.90 gear will work well with the TSP Torquer II. It will make for a nice setup.

With .054 Grapghite gasket, I used 7.425 p-rods (Got them from Thunder, Comp Cam).

I use a single chain, J-Wiss that I had before with stock oil pump. If I had to change chain I would use LS2.
