Ls2 Swap In FBody.
Hey guys I just recently bought a 2007 LS2 shortblock from a C6 that didnt come with any accessories. It does have the 58x reluctor wheel on the crank, So far I've gather up a list of parts of what I will need for my swap. Although I'm not sure what cam gear will need to work with my cam since 07 Ls2's came w/single-bolt cam gears, would it be ok to reuse my cam gear from my Ls1 or which one I have to buy ?
This is the list of what I have gathered to buy.
-- Cam Gear/Sprocket .............. ????
--58x-24x Reluctor Wheel Conversion ........ Lingenfelter
--243 Heads
--Ls2 Cam Sensor Harness Ext.
--Ls1 Knock Sensor Harness Ext.
--Ls2 Front Cover w/sensor...........12633906 Summit
LS2 Timing Chain Damper........... Came w/Shortblock
-Melling Oil Pump w/o Ring
-Ls2 05+ ARP Head Bolts
-Motor Mounts Prothane........... BMR/ UMI

If it has a 58x then you can't reuse the crank position sensor. You have the whole thing apart then why don't you just make it a 24x and you can re-use a large portion of your stuff and don't need to run the converter?

I didn't wanna disassemble the short block, a few shops were going to charge me $400-500 to take short block apart then to put it back together & aside to install reluctor wheel on crank was $100, I just decided to buy the 58x-24x Reluctor Wheel Conversion for $255. I already ordered the parts just waiting for them to arrive.
