Eventualy it will all make is way over to the ports and be burnt up, or some may dry up in the intake which won't hurt anything. I guess you could seafoam the rest but if you're low miles still just put the can on and forget about it.

As for the lifters they replaced all the lifters. This meant taking apart the engine all the way to the block. So now the engine has all new gaskets and seals etc. Also got a free oil change out of it too lol.

Car ran fine on the way home, i really didnt test it out, because it was snowing and i had ZERO traction with those pirellis. kept fish tailing doing about 25 mph.

But im gonna start it up later after its been sitting and see if the ticking is truely gone.
Hey Blacknight can you look at the worksheet and give us the part number of the replacement lifters they used. Thanks

Mine still ticked after tuning out the AFM. the lifters just have a defect. the new ones fix it i guess....
You're tuned and GM picked up the tab on the lifters?

I'd have to take off my blower.

Mine isn't ticking after the first few seconds. So I guess I'm good.
