Cam should be good for ya. Good power throughout the powerband with that one. The 112 LSA should give you a fairly decent lope as well.

I see Rollmaster chain in there...does that come with new gears??
Most guys are just ordering the LS2 timing chain and using the stock gears these days.
Done any research on the double roller chain with stock sized pump?? Some shimming may need needed. Or so I have read....

Did you get retainers for the valvesprings??

Should have gotten better rubber....

Looks like a hell of a list. Car will look GREAT with those wheels. Sound good with that cam, and run like a raped ape once tuned!!!

nope no research i dont know much about the cam stuff or all the other aspects about it ive been talking with some local people and this is just what they recomended and the guy that is doing the work has experiance with this cam so...im kinda just taking his word for it.
as for the pump if your taking about the oil pump the LS6 oil pump from my understanding is bigger and better than the one i have because my car is a 2000. gm changed the pumps in 01 along with the intake mani from a ls1-ls6....

gonna reuse the stock retainers again peeps told me it should be fine..


ive got one question for you Mr. Luos
do you think i should have to get a TC for the tranni or will te stock one work just fine..
my car is a daily driver and sadly i do drive it in the winter(thats why its dirty)

niiiice. . .you should get a ASP pulley while you have that thing apart.. looks like you are having someone else do the work. if I were you I would get them the longer bolts for taking the pulley on and off( see below post) .. unless they have all the special tools to do the job. trust me it will be easier on your crank threads. very nice chocies thou . car will sound great with that cam..

I was refering to the physical dimensions of the oil pump. LS6 pump appears the exact same as the LS1 pump. I have heard of people having problems with fitment when using a double roller chain.

As far as the TC....a higher stall would benefit you. But if you need to stick with the stocker, it shouldn't be a problem once tuned. Before the tune you may have some idle issues though.

I TC is definetly necessary.

Run a Search or make a post on LS1Tech... aside from the most mildest of cams, upgrading the TC recommended. Strongly Recommended.

In regards to the ASP Pulley... 5rwhp for $220. Ive considered it, but unless I can score one for a stupid awsome I just left my husband and am selling off all his toys price Im not going to run it.

ASP, March....10 RWHP for roughly $200. Get one at price....much cheaper.
The TC...I agree it will need to be upgraded to maximize the cam. But for a daily driver and with a tune the stocker should be fine for now.
How much strip time does the car get?

Well...Like I mentioned...you would benefit from a higher stall. Not too big with that cam though. Maybe a 3500.
But for now...the stocker will work. When you can though....
