We list the engine platform a part is built for. That is not year-and-trim application data, so it does not confirm a fit on your specific vehicle.

  • Est. install labor: 6.0 hrs — $750 at $125/hr. Pick Install at HRC and a 20% labor deposit ($150) is due at checkout; the balance is due at completion.
  • An estimate for a stock vehicle, not a quote — we confirm it in writing when you book, before any labor is authorized. Seized hardware, prior modifications, diagnosis and machine work are quoted separately; tuning is arranged through our tuning partner. Questions: (714) 202-7886.

COMP Cams LS Timing Cover part # 5496 fits all GM LS Based blocks, OEM and aftermarket, including the RHS® LS Race Block. The cover has a unique design that allows it to work with both front and rear Cam sensor LS engines. It however will not work with the LS7s unique oil pump and chain tensioner setup (Part # 5497 will). These parts are not included with the purchase of an RHS Race Block but are available for purchase separately.

  • Includes timing cover gasket and crank seal. Requires no modification to factory blocks. Variable Valve Timing equipped engines such as the L99, L92, LC9, L20, L9H, L96, LH9, LZ1, LMF, L94 and LC8 all require removal of VVT actuator to fit properly.
