I can't find a 'how to' guide for 5th gens, but their are PLENTY for 4th gens. So you can read one and skip all the 4th gen car specific stuff and read the parts about unbolting the heads and removing the plastic lifter trays etc that's what is relevant.
CLICK HERE AND READ from LS1howto.com
My personal opinion, if you can afford to due the lifters, do it. But at 85k id pull the cam inspect all the lobes for abnormal wear and pitting. If it looks MINT Id reuse the lifters, but thats just me. |
Very good point. I didn't think about that. I'll definitely just pull the cam and inspect it, and go from there. I don't have any lifter noise so I'm hoping everything looks ok once I get there.
Thanks for the advice and for the how to link.
