Default Keep or delete VVT?

I’m about to do the AFM delete on my 12’ sierra LC9. My main question is do I keep or delete VVT. It’s a daily driver and I’m just going to put a stock style cam back in it. Is there any pros/cons of keeping or deleting VVT?

If I keep VVT, do I only have to swap out the cam for a single bolt non dod cam? Part no.(28-12689035)

VVT cams can make a little more power and could help with fuel mileage but not very much at all.

I'd probably just remove all of it so you don't have to deal with it ever again. Just need the non VVT front cover too.

Get rid of it, makes tuning easier for whoever you chose to do it. That means better performance for you.
