Default 5.3 oil passages
Was hoping to get you guys opinion. On the gen4 eng with dod there are 8 oil passages under valley cover. I was planning on tapping and plugging these off. Has anyone done this or know if it wil effect oil psi. Thanks for your opinions

save the time and hassle grab the valley cover off of any 07 up 6.0 from a 3/4 truck stick it on and go it's way less hassle.
