Sam, we're glad to hear it worked out well for you. That front seal is prone to leakage after a cam/timing chain swap. I hope yours stays dry.
Did you use the GM ED timing set? I found that set was much tighter than my oem chain (w/55k miles).

I did not do the ED set, because it's much more expensive and I am not going to do anything drastic to the internals of the engine, at least not soon. All I can see in the near future is some bolt-ons: a catback (GMMG, I LOVE that sound!) and maybe some shortie or mid length headers and Y-pipe (I am thinking Macs...)
Thanks for your advice!
Sam
