Just checking in to say that GMs are huge pieces of shite and I would rather drive a Chrysler 300.

If I drop another lifter I'll probably do a full DOD delete and get rid of the entire system. I have it electronically turned off right now but I'd prefer if all the plumbing were gone as well.
What year did the "Gen 2" DOD start? Also, what programmer are you using? thx.

I have an 05 Z71 a with 180k. The thing has moved with me over the country to 7 different states. I keep waiting for it to crap out, but it won't.

The second iteration of the system is on the new LT motors starting with the new generation in '15 I believe. It might be '14 but I'm not positive. But in basic terms new body style = new DOD system. And from what I've heard they are much smoother and shows no signs of switching to 4 cylinders when it activates.

I had a program done by Engine Power Systems off Florida blvd. The owner used to operate Thunder Racing and is very knowledgeable on GM motors, especially the LS.
