Default 6th Gen Camaro cam swap question

I've done cam swaps on Gen III's and IV LSX's but never done a Gen V car or messed with DOD/AFM delete. What's all involved in doing the DOD/AFM delete? Any special tools? Thanks for the help team!

Pull heads, change lifters and trays, use cam phaser limiter (in most cases), etc. A lot more involved. Have to drop the oil pan a little too for clearance.

Another big complaint and time consumer is the use of sealant in lots of places instead of gaskets.

Yes indeed, a lot of scraping is needed and that grey RTV they're using doesn't just peel off. Bob
