Default LS cam gear swap...

All i need to swap cam gears are just cam seals, right??? or do i need more gaskets(i know the valve cover gasket has to be replaced too, and spark plug well gaskets).

you dont really need to replace the tube seals unless there worn out and old, but valve cover gasket and cam seals are a good idea just so you know there fresh.......if your doing this with the timing belt on just make sure you keep tension on that piece so when you put it all back together its not off a tooth or something, have fun..........

you don't have to replace the cam seals when you replace cam gears. but they are under 20 for both.

ps. the only time you want to replace the cam seals is if they are leaking or if you replace the cams.
