Round peg in a square hole - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just got my cam and I was running through some pre-assembly steps before I build my LS2. When I went to put the timing sprocket on the cam it wouldn't fit. The dowel is round and the hole(for lack of better terms) is oblong. The cam is for an LS2 and the timing set is for an LS2, so wth? Anyone know why this would be the case? Do I drill it out or buy another timing set?

I'm not sure. I got it off ls1tech.com and it was advertised as an ls2 set. Being new to the world of LS I only know what I've read and have absolutely no practical experience with any of the parts. It's going to be an education. I'm a fan of your truck though. I've been watching your threads for a while. The last I saw it was running 10's I think. Right? Obviously--> it's in your sig
