Yes, but there are limitations on lift and duration. If you want a REAL cam you need to delete the AFM... do a search...

IMO.. just best to do afm dod delete anyways. better for the engine and will get better acceleration off the line as well accelerating from cruising speed. If you go more aggressive then a stage one, you will definitely need to do a delete unless you want to destroy your engine.

His video isn't the best guide to follow, while he explains the afm dod, be cautious about how he does it. Not a fan of how he removes a radiator. Can cause some damage with this. Also makes no mention on making sure you get the right size pushrods. Anyone who isn't aware of this and thinks cause it comes with the kit its right can get themselves in trouble.
