Convert a compatible Gen IV 5.3L LS engine to a conventional non-DOD/AFM valvetrain with this complete DOD/AFM Delete Kit.

Key Features & Benefits
- Complete DOD/AFM Conversion Package: This kit brings together the essential lifters, lifter trays, valley cover, head gaskets, head bolts and exhaust gaskets required when converting a compatible Gen IV 5.3L engine to a conventional non-DOD/AFM valvetrain configuration.
- Full Set of Delphi LS7 Lifters: Sixteen Delphi LS7 lifters replace the original DOD/AFM lifters and restore conventional operation across all eight cylinders. Four GM 12595365 lifter guide trays are also included to correctly retain and align the replacement lifters.
- Choice of Non-AFM Valley Cover: Select either the reproduction L92-style valley cover or an OEM GM valley cover to match the preferred component package and budget. Each available valley-cover option includes its corresponding gasket and mounting bolts.

Great Product, Well Packaged, Quality Materials
I was very pleased with the kit. Everything was as described and quality parts. I presoaked the lifters before installing them and they had zero issues. Head gaskets and manifold gaskets were great quality. And the valley cover plate worked perfect. If I have another DOD failure that I have to repair in the future, I will for sure be ordering this kit. Expedited shipping as well. It came quick. Thanks again Michigan Motorsports!
