The installation of a LS timing cover is an essential part of any engine build. While it may seem like a daunting task, the process can be relatively simple with the right tools and knowledge. First, you will need to remove all necessary components (such as the oil pan) from around the front of your engine block in order to gain access to the timing cover bolts. Once these are removed, you'll then want to use a gasket scraper and clean up any old gasket material that could be preventing proper fitment of your new timing cover. Next, apply RTV sealant on both sides of your new gasket before installing it onto your engine block. Finally, bolt down your new LS timing cover with factory grade hardware and torque specs for a secure fitment! With these steps completed properly you should now have a correctly installed LS timing cover that's ready for action!
