Do you buy a device to turn off the AFM? do you have to change out valve lifters also? I am still new to this AFM and , would rather not have it.

I had a local performance shop turn it and the rear O2 sensors off (for the planned long tube headers with no catalytic converters). They did a few other small things, too. For $150 I got the AFM disabled and those few other improvements, so I'm happy. I think the Range plug-in thing is around $200, but it only disables AFM, nothing else. This is a temporary solution until I can delete the AFM by removing the components (lifters, valley cover, etc.) from the engine or just swap in a stock non-AFM engine.

07 Tahoe LTZ... just rolled 118k. Bought it back in Oct with 113k. So far I have done New Rear Axle Seals with Amsoil Severe Gear Oil and Amsoil 25k Signature Oil change. Also seafoamed it. The low oil light just came on and it looks like it has consumed almost 2qts in 5k miles. I have the Range AFM delete on order. Hope that resolves the oil consumption issue. Damn AFM! I will eventually do BB tune if I keep it.. I suppose I also need to do the Trans\Xfer case fluids, coolant, plugs and wires soon as well. But it idles and runs perfect for now. Couple common issues... chrome drivers door handle has come loose, cracked dash and HVAC buttons starting to wear, power running boards are toast (salt and MN = certain fail).

They sell the hvac overlay replacements on Amazon and eBay.
