I have an RX-8 that I want to do an LS swap on. I have run across an LC9 engine with 180,000 miles on it that recently had a drop in oil pressure which is probably the DOD lifter issue. I am thinking about buying it for my RX-8 but am interested in opinions of what parts to use for the DOD delete and what cam to use.

With that many miles, I assume that I will likely want to tear it down and put in new oil pump, rings, bearings, and gaskets. Anything else?

Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

You just replace the DoD parts with non-DoD parts. Lifters, trays, valley cover, cam, etc.
