Some of the sponsors have cam swap kits. Two that I can think of off-hand are Scoggin Dickey and Texas Speed.

GM p/n 12499228 and an ls2 chain should cover it. Give Scoggin Dickey a call like mentioned above. The search function is your friend....

don't worry about the front cover, front oil seal, or valve cover gaskets, totally unneeded...the originals are fine to reuse. basically you can do a cam swap with NO new gaskets and be fine. I've done 5 on my truck and never changed any of the gaskets out and never had a single leak.
