should i upgrade timing chains to an LS2 timing chain an that dampner? or should i just run my stock one considering ill only be spinning up to 6100

[DBRODS]

Might as well do the Heavy duty chain since your in there. Its only another 40.00 or so. Would be a good peice of mind. Glad we could be of assistance.

[keniff]

is the LS2 chain what i need? i think thats what i read as an upgrade for the 5.3

LS2 timing chain
wedge style dampner

what else should i put while its torn apart?
i have 1,000 miles on my motor should i really replace the o-ring on the pick up tube?

[DBRODS]

I use a simple rule of thumb for the oring. If its been at operating temp then toss it. That simple little $3 oring can kill your whole motor. Just be sure and replace it with the correct one. They are color coded. That should be it.. Chain # is 12586482

your the man Jon! thanks

ill bring the o-ring with me to the dealer or to Thunder Racing when i go get the dampner.

yall think i should install a shift kit along with my stall an servos? should i buy the longer servo pin with the Billet servos an 4th gear servo?

thanks

i was reading on gmfullsize.com of a guy building an LQ4 an he sprayed oven cleaner on it..wouldnt that ruin the oil for a few changes bc it doesnt all drain out when you change the oil?
