888 million still can't fix the lifter issues.

Bring back a V8 that has the longevity of the first 5.3l, 5.7 350 and early 6.2.

Smart move. The GM small block is a very reliable and efficient engine. The 6.2 recall is blown out of proportion, although still something to correct.

If we get rid of CAFE standards across all lines then they can remove the AFM and the lifters will magically fix themselves.

Those 4.8s were really good too, but I understand why everyone would rather the 5.3.

How do you say it's blow out of proportion when there are plenty of them that didn't make it 1000 miles before the motor cratered?
