Camshaft Timing Sprocket LS 6.2L 2008-2017

The Camshaft Timing Sprocket LS 6.2L 2008-2017 is a critical OEM component engineered by Chevrolet Performance to precisely control intake and exhaust valve timing on sixth-generation Corvettes, Camaros, and other LS-platform vehicles. For enthusiasts rebuilding a high-performance engine or restoring factory valve train integrity, this sprocket is non-negotiable—it synchronizes crankshaft rotation with camshaft position to maintain proper overlap and ensure optimal combustion efficiency. Whether you're performing a full engine refresh or replacing a worn timing component, OEM-spec replacement is the only way to preserve the LS 6.2L's legendary reliability.

This sprocket works in concert with the timing chain and crankshaft sprocket to maintain absolute valve actuation timing—any deviation introduces risk of valve float, misfire, or catastrophic piston-to-valve contact at high RPM. The Chevrolet Performance part carries factory tolerances and material specifications that guarantee perfect mesh with your cam timing chain; aftermarket alternatives often introduce slop that can compound over thousands of miles. At just 1.25 lbs, the compact 5.3 x 3.1 x 5.4-inch design fits directly into the engine bay's tight geometry without modification, and OEM fitment eliminates guesswork during installation.

Technicians rebuilding 2008–2017 LS 6.2L engines—found in Corvette C6, Camaro SS, and Cadillac CTS-V platforms—should stock this part alongside new timing chains and guides as a complete valve train refresh. Installation requires engine disassembly to crankshaft level, so timing sprocket replacement is typically bundled with chain service during major work. OEM Chevrolet Performance specification ensures your rebuilt engine delivers factory cam timing accuracy, preserving both reliability and the LS legend's exceptional power delivery across the entire RPM band.
