Need Help ASAP
Well i am going to finish up my new LS6 oil pump install tomorrow but i have a quick question. I bought a LS2 timing chain since i was going to have everything off anyway but i am kinda confused on whether or not i am going to have to set the timing again if i install the new chain. What do you guys normally do. I have tried to search but all the guys that have installed the chain are also installing a cam. I already have a cam in there and i already have a tune on the car. If i install the LS2 timing chain, am i going to have to get the timing reset? What do i have to do? Any help would be appreciated.

+1 on Rocket Cutlass post...same exact length...just a beefier chain. Shouldn't affect timing at all...LS2 gears are non-adjustable as well so dot to dot will be exactly the same as the LS1 chain. Shouldn't need any shims or anything like that either, its a thicker chain but not as big as double rollers so fits behind oil pump just like LS1. Most LS2 parts are like a version 2.0 of the LS1...they improved all the downfalls of the LS1....just sucks that not all the parts fit!
