Definitely one of the best dod videos out there. Thanks for taking the time to work and film at the same time. I wish i could do that but i cuss too much when I'm wrenching.
Im shock you aint just put a bigger cam since you had to go in and replace those weak stock chain tension guides with a solid corvette dampener. Just a thought to prevent failure later.
#6 just dropped on me yesterday 🤦🏾♂️.... Your video really got me thinking about doing it myself. Gotta make the time tho to busy working on other people cars 😂. But good stuff bro 💯
Had to come back to this video and mention. I think and don’t quote me on this because you have a gen 4. But when you cranked it over for the first time and your oil pressure up 80. I think it might of failed but not in the way commonly seen. My gen 3 actually did that not sure exactly what happened in it. But it kept popping oil filter gaskets so I swapped oil pumps and normal 40 to 45 psi oil pressure.
@@Johnny-jr2lq Thank you for watching..I installed a high volume oil pump and deleted the in pan relief valve, also it had fresh cold oil. Now it usually sits around 50 psi at idle and about 60 psi while accelerating.
@@a.c.c.3455 Nice!!!! As I’m attending TH-cam university learning how to do my own LC9 AFM/DOD delete. I figured out that the Melling high volume oil pumps are a must “while your in there” doing the delete. So sorry for the for the ignorance in my comment. Still learning about this can’t wait to get that AFM BS out of my truck’s motor.
Great video bro helped me a lot with my 09 Tahoe. At the 38:00 mark where u didn’t drop the rack pinion just took the line off I did just that but can’t get it pulled back over to put it back on
Make sure the oil pan is pulled all the way against the block and bolts are torqued, you should have the clearance to reinstall line. I hope this helps
Did you have to change the push rods are they a different lengths or will the factory ones still work I got the same exact kit you just done but I didn't get no push rods
Great video. I have a 07 suburban 1500 4x4 5.3. Been wanting to do the same but i never tore a engine apart like that before. Done everything but that. The timing chain part is wht holds me back. Any tips for a newbie when it comes to the timing and camshaft install. Tks bud
Take your time when installing the cam (be gentle) you don't want to damage the cam bearings, I have a video on installing cams in a ls. Timing on these engines is easy just make sure your time marks line up,I also have a video on installing the timing chain on an ls if you would like to watch it.
Brother I’m fixing to start my delete but my 2011 Yukon Denali xl 6.2 has the vvt timing that I want to delete can I replace with the regular timing plate cam gear or does it have to be tuned too
@@a.c.c.3455 mines have 220,000 no lifter has dropped would it be worth me doing it or just replace the motor I like working on cars and wanted to accomplish this goal to see if I can do it sounds crazy but I can see the satisfaction you get from working on cars
@@a.c.c.3455 thank you brother I was thinking the same thing I have one more question is it okay for me to use a scotch brite pad to clean the heads I was told not to use them on aluminum and do I need to take them to a machine shop to get checked and resurfaced trying to make sure I got my ducks in a row before I start
Great video bruh it helped me a lot doing my 09 Tahoe! I have one question at the 38:00 I didn’t drop the rack pinion I took that bolt out like you did but now it’s off where I can’t attach it back over
You took way too much shit off bro I didn't take my radiator off just the hoses not the trans line at all just water lines I didn't even take my ac compressor off I took the whole brakes on the right side off and let it sit down right where it is but away didn't disconnect nothing on that side besides fuel line injector harness and spark plug wires u just did way too much for nothing
Ordered my kit yesterday from AMS. Got a truck Norris cam for my 2011 Silverado. Great start to finish video!!!
That's awesome 😎 and thank you for watching 😃

@@yotaengine thank you , and believe me I did my fair share of cussing off camera 😂
I wish you were in MD, id hire you to do this mess on my caddy

Sounds damn good .my friend
Thanks and thank you for watching 😃
I also like that you painted some parts. Looks sharp.
Thank you
Thanks for posting. I’m going to do the same job on my 2011 Chevy Avalanche. #3 cylinder misfire.

You where a lot of help Thank you sir.And God Bless you
I'm glad i was able to help, God Bless you too and thank you for watching 🙏🏾
Will a failing DOD cause your engine to smoke? Mines running like it's missing on multiple cylinders so I think it's the DOD. My 5.3L has 236K miles
Possibly … thanks for watching
Good video bro frfr should have more than 3.3k views
@@russianroulette3476 thank you

Does that head unit you have control the dvd player? I want to get rid of my dvd player and install
Something I can stream or use a usb
No but you can stream with it
What torque wrench is that your using to torque the heads
if you not gonna say she the best in the world at least give her the whole state maybe even the country lol, great video tho very helpful.
Your absolutely correct ✅…and thank you for watching
💯 good lookin’

Add a cold air intake and a cat back , she'll run even better , nice job man .

Yo what oil pump did you get?
@@jr.a4955 melling hi flow oil pump
What color did you use
I also have to do a vvt delete as well do I have to replace the beehive springs as well or just leave them alone
No need to get change unless you’re going upgrade the cam.
Great video....lots of information 👏🏽 👌 👍🏽

@@mack606 yes you can replace it with a regular one ,
I like the video. I'm going to get a kids pool for fluids too now. How you like the Ryobi tools?
Ryobi ratchet works really well…just remember to break the bolts loose by hand
Brother how many miles on your engine when you did your dod delete
@@mack606 197,000 when the lifter dropped

Good Work 2007 Soon Thank You For Posting !!!
Thank you for watching
Will the same parts work for 02 Tahoe 5.3l Ls?
@@jaeshawngrigsby1746 everything except the cam I used. It's a one bolt can and your motor should have a 3 bolt can
How much is a job like this cost parts and labor
If you do it yourself around 1000. If you get someone to do it around $4500
What the user said is correct
$1000-1500 yourself or $4000-$5500 depending on options you have
Like that paint scheme hard
@@davntelisha19 thank you
Bruh do you have to replace the valve springs
@@mack606 only if you put a bigger cam in it
@@a.c.c.3455 I’m putting in the truck Norris cam and thanks for reaching out
@@mack606 it says No spring upgrade required, but it wouldn't hurt to upgrade while you're already there especially if it's a high mileage motor
