Default RHS Timing Cover

RHS block has camshaft raised .388", the cam sensor location needs to be modified if you plan on using front LS2/LS3/LS7 cam sensor location cover. We had cam sensor mounting flange water jetted and weld in place on the cover. Our cover matches same dimensions and sensor depth as factory cover would with .388" raised location.

Have a few available if interested
LS2/3 Timing cover $200
LS7 timing cover $240
Cam sensor flange only $30

Heres pic from machining

No extra clearance on the inside, the newer style 10295 pump with the flat screws doesn't need as much clearance as before, I'm anticipating melling will have the 10296 the same way soon.

sold out of LS7 RHS timing covers, doing another run of 5 in February with the last 5 sensor flanges we have. Pre-order would be a good idea if you need one, will only charge for when ready to ship.

Have 5 LS2 RHS timing covers in stock.

I have inquired about this modification before on this board and people have told me that they have built these motors (RHS) without this modification and that the motors run fine. Even if they run, does this become a timing issue if you don't do the modification?

The RHS has cam sensor hole in the back of the block, like an LS1. Its fine to use, will need a LS6 valley cover. Theirs a couple reasons that may not work. If you have an E38 PCM, C6, G8, 2010 Camaro etc. needs different cam sensor signal. Need the 4X cam gear for cam signal.

Just putting an LS2/3 cover on an RHS block, the cam sensor will be off .388", that won't work.

I also just sent a cover to someone with a Harrop 2300 blower, the LS1 cam sensor won't fit.

Then it comes down to which is most cost effective, an LS1 cam sensor, a new valley cover and timing cover, or just installing the proper timing cover and a LS2 cam sensor.

GM had reasons to switch cam sensor design/location, just like how they changed from 24 to 58x crank reluctor.

I thought RHS gave you the front cover with the block, but after checking, I see that they don't. They should...

Some people run a belt drive, some people use the LS1 cam sensor in back of the block, which is nice of them to offer LS1 cam sensor provision.

Not all situations need our timing cover, but most do.

It's a good thing that you offer these.
