LS2 Timing Chain Part Number?

**JoeMack** · 03-03-2006, 05:16 PM

Went to local dealer today to price the LS2 timing chain for my 02 Z28. He told me that the part number was the same for LS1. Is this true? I will be doing a H/C swap and I only have 19K miles on it. I don't want to change it if it is the same. Isn't the LS2 chain an upgrade? Anyone have the GM part number for it? Thanks

Chain is the same - We sell a double roler set up for $99.00 you can go to our website to view

Chain part number is 12586482 and I was under the impression that it was a better chain than the LS1. I have one I am looking to sell if you are interested. But find out if it is an upgrade first though.

The part # is the same because they don't make the old LS1 chains anymore. If you go to buy an LS1 chain, you will be given the stronger LS2 chain. New LS1 chain=LS2 chain.

No problem

The chain itself should be about $28.00

$28.00 for a stock chain or $99.00 for a new double roller chain with all the fix'ns? hmm let me think.
