Default Part number help!!

What I'm looking for is the aluminum spacer/gaskets that sit behind the oil pump. I've been to 2 GM dealers and neither can find the part number in their system. This is the picture that the dealers show, and the spacers are not listed. Any ideas?

Sounds like you might be talking about the pump spacers required by double-chain timing sprocket/chain setups like my Rollmaster. The stock pump bolts directly to the block but needs the spacers to set it about 5mm further from the block to compensate for the thicker chain.

Stock oil pump - no spacers


Here's my Rollmaster double-chain setup. Note how much wider it is than the stocker above.


Rollmaster spacers (I had an extra lying around for my next build )
