I'm living in Europe and understand why GM produced this shi.. afm engines. Because of these stup.. guys who don't know how they can spend their money to afm pub' s! 😂😂😂

Dude why do all that work an not take the lifters out?!? Just do full delete

Dude why do all that work an not take the lifters out?!?

Badass cars

Doesn't look like distilled water to me. Htf did your vehicle last this long???

Was going to talk shit about not changing the lifters, but honestly, good on you for owning your mistake and still posting it. Shit happens. Nobody knows everything and people need to remember that. Myself included.

you should have replaced the lifters too

So tell us what do you know

Here's the other person I had the same issue with my 06 5.3 trailblazer with a brand new engine tried the vlom plate and 2 min after starting a brand new engine started hearing a knocking noise, thought it was a fly wheel, or injector, or a bolt that fell into the head. Turned out to be the bypass plate mine to has been coded out for the afm also. Placed the factory plate on and all is okay was a scary moment wish I had found this video before

If it were that simple, we would have to spend $2000 on parts to remove DOD

That thing is nastier than black liquorice! I picked up an Ls3 for my 07 Avalanche. I will be going twin turbo on mine.

2 weeks ago i had a lifter replacement done on my 07 suburban they said everything looked and ran great.......Till everything happened again exactly 2 weeks later in the same spot..... Cylinder 1 intake failed again. I kinda know my stuff so removed the valve cover and sure as shit same lifter. Took it back sense i didn't have time in the first place to do it myself and paid $1900, they now found that the valley was starving oil from that lifter. They are taking care of me at no cost but the new valley and any other damages if they find any......Just sucks that this great shot has to eat the cost because of GMs shit. When i pick up my truck ill be dropping off pizza for the entire shop, im not rich but fell bad that a new business is going to eat the cost.

My 07 Avalanche has 376000. Best durn vehicle I have.

Look at that fucking driveway

Every shop should know how to setup driveline angle...or simple hookups. Too many incompetents that own tool boxes. Nice conversion. Get the gremlins ironed out every build has em and enjoy. Bet it turns out to be super reliable, just the right amount of power and great sounds.

That's the way to go . Yes old school carbureted leaky carbon monoxide gas hogs are traditional . But this is the best of both worlds . Great looking body with great running engines "

What the hell do u guys see his motor mount/ ratchet strap below the alternator I’m wondering if there isn’t a secret charge account at harbor freight and a giant shade tree in the back yard. I love the guys tool boxes too just look at the organization

Im doing a dod delete on ls4 and I’m doing everything cam lifters double roller timing set new valley plate plugs for the 8 oil passages. I also already got a tune but was like this guy that corner of valley plate oil leak. Since you pull heads to do lifters valve job then. No wonder this is having problems just half assign the work. He needs a role model

I have a 2013 black diamond edition want to put a 6.2 or 6.0

Even though i would not be doing Anything i just witnessed cause it looked sketchy as hell, i give this guy props for at least giving this a try. Lets be honest, alot of people would be to scared to even try this

You dont know what your doing why would you not take out the afm lifters like your supposed to

I have 1st an 2nd camaro i want to swap

You need to be a really good mechanic to own a GM, I wasn’t one and my GM cost me a fortune even with me doing half the stuff that went wrong with it.

Question I have a 12 sierra 5.3 Vin 7 lc9 threw a rod can I swap a lmg 5.3

What size rims and tires are those exactly

Great video! I’ve also got a 6.0 in a white 67 El Camino with a TH350 I’ve got a 12 bolt out back tho

I believe the oil leak is the oil pan where the pressure goes through it.

I have an 81 z28 I wanna ls swap but I have to be frugal. I just want to keep Up with the 5.0 mustangs or be a tad faster.

Im fixing to perform this delete on my 08 avalanche. Full cam swap wish me luck

are there any that come mated to a manual trans?

You fried the Dod lifters bro

So glad I’m not your neighbor.

Wtf? Just turn it off! It’s literally one click and you don’t have to install some sketchy plate inside your engine!

At 14:57 what was that object that fell into the intake?

thought this was gonna be a bs video saying all these block off plates were no good as I'm about to put one on mine with LS7 lifters, had me worried for a minute, but glad to see that that wasn't the case. Good info to have for people that don't want to tear their motor down to the block, definitely gonna be good advice for anyone who sees this, or anybody that asks somebody that has seen this video about it. I love finding videos on stuff like this that cover a niche group of people, that take a different route to manage an issue and find good valuable info for the next guy to encounter, helps a lot more people than one might think. THANK YOU! I'm sure more people need to see this video!!

I wonder if this guy did this on purpose for a vid .. theres indo everywhere that this wont work to delete it ..

Does it clear the hood

Sounds good

My 07 Suburban had a big leak from the crank shaft seal.

18:58 Alternator sleeve bushings drove me nuts on my LS1 Trans Am! Fought it 20 mins to mount it, looked at old Alt vs. new Alt. they were Identical. I got further up under car and saw them sticking out of the bracket and knew they were instigators lol, I eased them back in with channel locks & then Alternator slid in fine.

What headers did you use?

Awww

Remembering a crazy ride In you mustang

Wow it's nice to see you back

Just bought van 07…. This is exactly what I plan on doing to mine

Subscribed, Good Job figuring it out.💀

I just can’t imagine taking any advice from this video, lots of red flags, ratchet strap was the first

Rear engine cover gasket can leak down on starter

Are you sure that it’s really the rear main seal? A lot of people mistake the oil cooler block off plate leaking as a rear main seal, you should definitely look into that the oil cooler block off plate it right above the oil filter
