Product Description
Genuine GM 5.3L DOD/AFM Delete Camshaft 12689035 | OEM Non-DOD Gen IV Camshaft
Specs: 190/191 .466"/.457" 114 LSA, Single Bolt | Fits Gen IV 5.3L LS Engines | Ideal for DOD/AFM Delete Applications
Eliminate factory DOD/AFM the right way with this Genuine GM 5.3L DOD/AFM Delete Camshaft 12689035, an OEM non-DOD camshaft used in factory-equipped non-DOD 5.3L truck engines. Featuring 190/191 duration, .466"/.457" lift, and a 114 LSA, this single bolt camshaft is a proven solution for Gen IV LS engines needing stock-style drivability, OEM reliability, and compatibility with factory valve springs and pushrods. This camshaft can be used with or without VVT and is ideal for builders looking to avoid the hassle of sourcing used parts from junkyards or auction sites. If your engine originally came equipped with DOD/AFM lifters, a DOD lifter conversion kit will also be required. For an easier installation, an optional gasket kit is available that includes the timing cover gasket, water pump gaskets, damper seal, and crankshaft bolt.
Important Note: For use in Gen 4 engines only (camshaft sensor on front of engine in timing cover). Will not work on Gen 3 engines with the cam sensor located behind the intake manifold. GM trucks typically started using Gen 4 engines in 2007.
