I just picked up a 5.3 from a NBS yukon with dod on it and am wanting to swap cams.Does anyone have a list of parts that i will need to delete the dod?

 

I found the thread, so I know it's there. You can search for it though. If you don't know how to search, you could probably look in this section...currently a few threads down....

 

Is this the thread that you're referring to Coban? https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=451478

If there's a complete DOD cam swap list in there, maybe it should be a sticky

 

“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime”

 

I was looking to see if anyone had a list with part numbers.

 

here is a list with part numbers with prices NEW from gm parts direct...i got most of them from hrs of research to find everything...the only thing it didnt get was the LS2 timing gear as i bought a trick flow set....but everything should be there ...all gaskets(head, timing cover, water pump) bolts (cam, heads) LS7 lifters, lifter guides, and valley cover...most parts number are interchangleable with all LS motors....

these numbers are for a 08 GEN IV 5.3 head bolts and gaskets change by year and bore size

A super easy way to delete the DoD is electronically through the engine control module. HP Tuner software can do it. If you have an older ECM, then I doubt it would be activated. I mention this as an easy option.

 

yeah thats the easy way..but if your going to add a cam with higher lift it is recommened to change the lifters and all or most of the parts listed above....

 

IS anyone running A CAM in a DOD engine? I don't mind deleting the DOD electronically, but Physically is a whole other issue.

What would be the worst thing that could happen if one of those DOD lifters fails? Engine stops running and I need to replace the lifters anyways?

My thought would be if I tear that far into the motor, why don't I replace those heads?

When you say "worst that could happen if a DOD lifter fails" do you mean fails pumped up or bled down? It makes a difference. I don't see the point of deleting DOD through a ECM flash unless you remove the LOMA and install a big cam and replace the DOD lifters. My truck has DOD and you can see the engine jump from 8 to 4 and back to 8 cylinders on the IPC as you drive. It's actually close to being in real time. I'm planning on doing this cam swap myself once the Pacesetter longtubes are ready for the 09 Silverado's which is only days away.
