Were the springs and oil pump changed out? Curiosity mostly as I am looking at a Howards LSA cam also.

Yes I changed out the oil pump to a high presser high volume, also used luniti voodoo duel valve springs, comp hardened push rods ,c5-R timing chain ,ls2 dog bone dampener,3 bolt timing gear with new bolts , new cam retainer plate with new bolts, new GM crank bolt , new spark plugs and Taylor 409 race wires with DEI heat socks , car only has 15,000miles so I left the stock lifters and did the swap with out taking the heads off

I did the install myself at home in the driveway so no cost for labor , the cam and supporting valve train with all the extras to do it right the first time was about 2500 dollars

My tuner does free retune for life so that was no cost but could factor in an extra 500 dollars if I had not already had that covered
