i would still highly recommend doing it tho...

i asked all of my buddies about their motors and they said it's the 1st thing the did when they put their shit back in...

Johny5 · 05-25-2009, 10:59 AM

What you guys are recommending is often a problem caused by dual row timing chains. The shims that you must install on the back of the pump, melling or not, causes misalignment with the oil pickup tube hole. Reverting back to the upgraded single row chain allows me to remove those shims and not have to machine the face of the pump. It'll fix the "scared" up oil relief passage walls which we believe is whats causing the sparatic pressure at times and also fix the oil pump pickup tube hole misalignment

What is the LS2 chain type? I know its an upgrade over the LS1.

Johny5 · 05-25-2009, 12:41 PM

its a stronger single timing chain, thicker than ls1 yet not dual row

miro · 05-26-2009, 12:30 PM

Katech C5R chain. Do it.

vaughn4 · 05-26-2009, 06:27 PM

WHY STEWBERT

Johny5 · 08-03-2009, 12:50 PM

black engine bay makes for easy touchups plus it makes the shiny motor parts stick out more

TUnity2 · 08-03-2009, 12:59 PM

it also makes it tough to find leaks and such.

Johny5 · 08-03-2009, 01:00 PM

my motors don't leak

Brian · 08-03-2009, 05:40 PM

Oh, so those blue and red guys are called ferrules?

***FaLKoN240*** · 08-03-2009, 07:51 PM

The ferrules are actually the part of the fitting that holds the pipe (or hose, as it may be)... and the AN comes from Army/Navy, which got together when they started making aircraft and set the standard for design, manufacture, etc for pipe fittings, hose, connectors/adapters, and the like.

Edit: There's an industrial equivalent to the AN-spec, JIC, which has compatible thread pitch/size and flare for each diameter, but isn't manufactured to the same spec (threads will break, stuff leaks, etc). That's why everyone makes such a big deal about "AN".

Z33dori · 08-04-2009, 09:09 AM
