From what I have hear there is something that has to be done to make the double roller timing chain fit on my 96 lt1 camaro.. the whole build is finally gonna come all together after a year and I just want to make sure I got everything together before I start want a smooth process so if camaroz28 can help me out once again that would be great!! Thanks again everyone!!

 

This would getter better results in the "LT1 Based Engine Tech" forum, than in "Drivetrain". I'll move it there for you.

 

You need an electric water pump, delete the CKP, install an earlier OBDI-type crank hub (or shim the OBDII hub), and trim the rear of the timing cover. Ideally you'd want a 95 timing cover too...it has a vented opti but no provision for the CKP, but you can make the 96+ work.

 

CkP I knew there was something didn't realize it was all that much

 

So removing the ckp is not going to mess up the performance part of the car?? From my research the 96 with OBD 2 that is the only difference is that sensor.. switch to OBD 1 anyhow they can do the bypass that code correct??

 

also another question when running this timing chain do I need to advanced timing or is it dead on thanks

 

The CKP sensor was added in OBD-II to detect misfires. It serves no other purpose, and can be deleted without any affect on the way the engine runs. You will have to have the code for the CKP sensor programmed out to avoid staring at an SES light all the time.

There are numerous other differences in OBD-II, including a mulitude of diagnostics, the EVAP vacuum detector and after-cat O2 sensors.

 

All smog **** is coming off of the car... The original plan was to convert it back to obd 1 anyways but I have heard diffent stories on that as well... Thanks for the help guys..

 

All timing is adjusted via the PCM. Just install the chain dot to dot and you're good to go!

 

Great thanks...
