You need to purchase the appropriate equipment separately.

Although I didn't hook it up when installing. OEM screws will not work in this application. This resulted in the engine having to be pulled out and disassembled to repair damaged parts.

Pros
  • Camshafts
Cons
  • Zero

Fits 2000 LS1 in spare parts

I am changing 2000 LS1 from Trans Am to Datsun 280z. This plate fits the block with Texas Speed 224R cam and SLP 50002 dual roller timing chain kit. The plate did not come with bolts and I bought them separately.

Pros
  • spare parts
Cons
  • negative present

Be careful with your parts

The part arrived on time but. arrived without screws as other reviews said they received the screws with the part, no original packaging and indications that it is genuine GM as stated in the description. This is a new style of bracket, so your old flat head screws won't be of any use, you need new countersunk screws to install, and GM's original set of 4 is about $12. Better buy a Mahle B31822 and use your old bolt.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Useless features
