2015 L83 5.3

Hey, I am sure that this has been asked and answered but I am not finding it. I have a 2015 Silverado 1500 LT with the L83 engine. I had a stuck lifter on cylinder 6. We pulled the heads and I bought all new OEM lifters replaced them reinstalled everything only to have the same #6 lifter stick within driving 200 miles. I have pulled the heads again and have sent you an order for the plug to do the VLOM mod and I was planning to just buy another lifter from GM to put back in it. I was also planning to send my ECM to LT1 Swap to get it programed. My question is do you think this will solve my problem or should I plan on doing a full delete.

Yes this will solve your issue. The VLOM is typically the source of failure for the LT based direct injection engines. See https://youtu.be/efV9q5k-3SM for reference.
