I've never gone far into the GEN IV world but my next engine still has all the variable valve timing BS on it. I'd like to delete the system and go back with a 3 bolt cam and all but what about the cam sensor and timing set?

This is about the only territory I haven't been in with the new family of engines. Anybody done it?

 

I know that it's been done, I'll see what I can dig up...supercharged680 and norris 83 have both done the VVT delete...

 

So far all that I found was the part number for the cam gear...

Frans96SS is a member on ls1tech and he is the owner of Race Proven Motorsports here in Delaware.I know they do this at his shop.Shoot him a PM with ?'s,hopefully he can help.My friends G8 that Fran set-up with the VVT delete just got the bolt on/cam only record last nite. 11.58 in the quarter

 

thanks for the help fellas... I'll keep on digging and definitely shoot him a PM and see what all there is to it... theres no way it can be too complicated.

 

i did the VVT delete on mine Ben....shoulda calle or texted me

all you need is a timing gear, front cover. Thunderracing sells
it as a kit. or just find you a front cover that doesnt have VVT from a 07+ 4.8/5.3
