Geez I missed allot between work and school. I daily my car but my mpg suck anyways since my foot is heavy. My dod is also tuned out. I was unaware that thunder racing had a dod delete kit that cheap. I asked about dod cams from thinking only new era made the only kits and 1200 is a bit out of my budget. I thank you guys for all the info you all bring to me online.

Don't buy the New Era DOD cam and think it will be OK. The cam is degreed in such a way that you'll need to go way over 7000RPM to reach peak power, and your DOD lifters will float long before that.

"While the four DoD lifters are heavier than the other twelve, the parasitic drag they exert on the engine is minimal. In fact, I would argue that a high wattage audio amplifier costs more MPG than does those four lifters. Besides, pretty much everyone else has experienced a highway MPG loss, and those that have not just don't drive on the highway much, if at all."
I think there may be 8 dod lifters and 8 non dod lifters!
