Finished installation of my Heath cooling upgrade, which included changing out my timing chain. BTW to Heath and they said that GM specs allow up to 5/8" play in the timing chain. Anyhow, fired up the truck and had a leak at the oil cooler. Replaced the seal there and no more leaks. However, lots of white smoke and somewhat rough running. Is this indicative of the timing being off? I lined up the IP with my marks, but I'm sure there was enough slop in the timing chain and shift in the timing cover such that I'm off.

If so, I'll have to take it into the dealer in the morning as I don't have the GMTDScan, nor the tool to get at the IP nuts under the dual crossover housing.
