Only reason I'd considering getting rid of it, is because of the AFM lifters... yeah my car with Long Tube Headers tuned out the AFM, but those POS lifters are still there and they're annoying.

I'd imagine getting rid of the lifters means getting rid of the VVT. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, because I really want to get rid of these lifters.

I deleted my AFM lifters but kept VVT, I'm running a VVT cam and well I love it and I'm glad I wasn't talked into doing an LS3 conversion.

How was this done? Do you have a list of parts and install process?

I would get this done this weekend seriously.... I hate these stupid lifters with a passion.
