L77 afm lifters swapped to ls7

[Cavman]

So I have changed all 16 lifters and trays in my l77 to ls7, a new genuine cam (L77). They valley cover is l77 also.
I bought the car and it never Dropped cylinders so I was assuming The dod delete kit was in Clearly not, no biggie.
So currently It idles a bit low and threw up an oil pressure fault.

what would be the rectification?
new valley cover?
Oil pump?
Resetting the throttle? As the fault popped up at low idle which I proportional to oil pressure

your help would be greatly appreciated and no I don’t want a cam upgrade and tune this is purely a daily

You must replace the valley cover with a Non DOD type valley cover. Or you'll get what you are getting now, low oil pressure.

With DOD delete you shouldn't have run a factory L77 cam either.

Why is that, should I have installed an L98?

 

[crew chief]

I have heard that they are pretty much designed with dod in mind is all, a lot of options out there in cam choices though once you remove the dod lifters.

The L77 DOD cam has different lobes on the DOD cylinders than the non DOD cylinders, this is to suit the collapsable lifters. You have installed non DOD LS7 lifters, these will not suit a DOD cam.

just take the cam out n put a LS3 or L98 cam in it and the normal valley cover so it all works and it will be fine, can even go a normal oil pump as u wont need all the pressure from the pump that the dod did
