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?

if a lifter fails- there goes ur cam/pistons . .
i've seen it happen where DOD lifter fail at High lift cam's and damages pistons+cam...
.. why dont you just do it right the 1st time..
ls7 lifter's run $120 + LS2/7 valley cover runs $50.. that's all you need. / and its a safe insurance +you can run high lift cam's + sping it all way 7000RPM w/out any problem's...

It's not so much the parts that are the problem. Just pulling the heads off might take this to a whole differant level for this guy. I also think that if I was to tear the motor up that much, I might As well put differant heads back on since it will be such a time investment for me.
What would make these DOD lifters fail more likely with the new cam? Lift? Is there anyone running a milder cam with the dod lifters?
If I was to put new heads on my 5.3, what would make sense?
Sorry for high jacking this thread.

Like lucky77 said all you need are those mian parts I just listed everything..since you are already there like most say... just do it right..and i wanted to give the parts numbs for the extra piece..no new gaskets or bolts will eave you waiting around for a tow truck and then your back to tearing it down
