yes i will, can't wait to get cracking, im gonna try to run down to my tuner tuesday night and have the DOD turned off. One of my buddies who works for redline motorsports very good wrench w/ ls stuff is helping me w/ the swap, how long should it take w/ an experienced helper?? He seems to think only afew hours.

depends, I've done about 20 swaps, still takes me about 3-4 hours... thats with beer and **** breaks... plus I usually have atleast one temper tantrum in there somewhere when I **** something up.

a buddy and I dicked around on my swap...took breaks here and there, went and had dinner. in no means rushed to get it done and had it done in 5 hours, and we worked slow when we were working. It's the easiest swap you'll do

There is a lot of bad information going on with DOD/AFM cam swaps, and to set the record straight, you have to replace the lifters and trays alog with all the other doo-dads to actually get into the lifters, to make the truck run correct.
Anyone running a cam on an AFM engine with AFM lifters might as well just buy AAA roadside assistance, because you will need it.

I had my DOD turned off even befor the cam swap but when i installed the cam it went to crap. My cam was damaged and i had one lifter fail completely. I caught it cause it started with a misfire and it turned out to be a lifter that had collapsed. Well, when i took out the cam it was damaged so i replaced the cam, lifters, and valley cover and that took care of it.
