Oil pump drive gear I'm building an LS2 402 and having some issues with the damper hub (ATI) being too far back on the crank causing clearance issues with the timing cover.
I took the timing cover off and to me, it looks like the oil pump drive gear is way too far back. Please see pic below.
I have a JP Performance 5623T double roller timing set and a Melling HV pump w/ spacers to compensate for chain clearance.
Has anyone run into this with a similar set up? I've seen posts about timing cover clearances but not with damper fitment. I contacted ATI about the damper AC pulley hitting the timing cover and they indicate it's either my timing gear, oil drive gear or timing cover is the cause.
Thanks,
