COMP Cams GM LS Gear Drive Timing Set (RHS LS Race Block)

When you're building a serious LS engine, especially for racing or high-performance street use, getting your valve timing just right is critical. What you get in this COMP Cams gear drive timing set is a robust solution designed to give you the most precise valve timing possible. It achieves this by completely eliminating the chain flutter and backlash you can get with a traditional timing chain, which can lead to inconsistencies in when your valves open and close.

This gear drive system is built specifically for raised cam LS engines, like those found in RHS LS Race Blocks, and it bolts right on without needing any modifications. That means you can keep your stock oil pump and timing cover, simplifying the installation process. It's designed to work with all 24x and 58x LS engines that use a wet-sump oiling system and feature a three-bolt camshaft. COMP Cams has engineered these gear drives to be the only ones available for LS engines that are based on their award-winning Sprint Car Gear Drive design, making them a unique and well-built option for demanding applications.

This kit is a solid choice for anyone looking to maximize the accuracy of their engine's timing. Because it eliminates the stretch and slack inherent in timing chains, you get a more direct and consistent connection between your crankshaft and camshaft. This level of precision can make a notable difference in how your engine performs, especially at higher RPMs where timing accuracy is paramount.
