DOD and AFM are the same thing.

It's only gonna be available in EC or CC models, either 2wd or 4wd.

It will be a 5.3L without AFM(due to cost), rated at 300hp and 320lb-ft.

There are a couple of threads on Tech about it.

Even though it won't be available in a RCSB model, swap parts will be easy to get for anyone that wants to make their own.

In one of the threads it was said that the RC didn't have enough room for the cats/emission equipment or something like that.
