Nick, make sure you replace the lifter trays with GM OE only. The counterfeit Chicom ones are out of tolerance and destroy engines immediately.
If your budget does not allow for a BTR Truck Torque or Truck Norris Camshaft, get the L33 camshaft from GM, 12583623. It is the same grind as your original without AFM. Not tuning required other than to turn off AFM.
So finally done. Got everything back together, started it up and sounds like crap lol. Not the same crap as before, just different crap. Oo, I did not do the afm delete kit, I went with just the stock afm kit cause my wife wanted her truck the way it was. But anyway, Im not getting the P0306 anymore. Its now a P0300. When I took the spark plug wire off cylinder 2 the metal piece inside stayed on the plug. I tried to put it back In the boot but I don't think it's right. I'm going to go see if I can buy just 1 wire instead of the set. I'll follow up after.
If it was just one wire, that would just have the code for that cylinder.
You are correct. I had a frustrated moment and wasn't thinking straight. P0300 is a multiple misfire. I think the intake manifold gaskets that came with the kit are absolute garbage. The location holes broke as soon as I tightened the 10mm head bolts. After looking at where it's sitting under there manifold, it doesn't look right. I went and got a mahle set and hopefully that will work.
Better chance of that being the problem. But do a wire set while apart.
Will do thank you
At 3am I finally threw in the towel as it started raining. I got the new intake manifold gasket on. A friend was helping me for a little bit putting everything together earlier, apparently not only was the gasket set I had crap but numb nuts also broke a freak manifold bolt in the head. I got it out and chased the threads with a Tap. I don't ever suggest anyone buy the metal gaskets that go over the smaller head bolts, they are garbage. I got the 1 that snaps onto the intake manifold itself. Anyway my wife came out to help me get everything back on. I go to put the alternator on and never knew she already connected the battery. I arced the red power wire for the alternator on the alternator, now I have to juice what so ever to the truck. I checked and don't see any blown fuses anywhere. I think I might of cooked the battery. Put my charger/jump box on it and still no juice getting to anything. My multimeter was reading from 12v down to 4v and it just kept going up and down like a music scale. Anyone have any suggestions other than never have anyone help me again?
