Matt brought his 2018 6.2L Chevy Tahoe to Top Speed Cincy with a familiar set of complaints lifter issues and transmission concerns that are all too common on GM’s DOD-equipped V8 platforms. Rather than just addressing the symptoms, we took the opportunity to eliminate the root cause entirely and build something truly capable in the process.
We performed a full DOD/AFM delete, installed a Circle D triple disc converter with a 3000 stall, and upgraded the transmission pump stator for improved reliability and performance. This wasn’t just a repair it was a transformation.
The numbers don’t lie. Matt’s Tahoe walked in with a DOD system working against it and left with a completely reimagined powertrain. With over 100 horsepower gained, this 6.2L build proves what’s possible when the right combination of parts meets the right tuning. The DOD delete alone freed up significant engine efficiency, and the camshaft and exhaust upgrades pushed the power curve into territory most stock GM trucks never see.
The torque curve is broad and usable across the entire RPM range, making this setup ideal for a daily driver that still wants to put a smile on your face. Whether Matt is running errands around Cincinnati or opening it up on the highway, this Tahoe delivers smooth, confident power at every throttle position. This is exactly the kind of build that keeps customers coming back to Top Speed Cincy.
