How far back in time do you have to go to get port fuel injection, one single camshaft with no phaser, and no cylinder deactivation?

Don't know, to be honest. Early 2000's?

According to RockAuto, 2006 was the last year for GM. RockAuto calls it a "non-active fuel management valve lifter."

Correct. The only flaw in this engine is the DI without port injection.

And in the LT series DI has not been issue if you are talking about carbon build up on the valves.

GM is a good example of a company lost to a one-way ideology that doesn't work. One person at the top runs around in her leather jackets acting cool like she's Fonzi. How does someone like that get to be CEO? All I can guess is all the people around her are stuck in the same group-think. If GM goes bust again, the government will just bail them out again... that must be it. Ford looks to have an intelligent leader, though I never heard him standing up for what's right before.

Your question about the CEO is valid but in my opinion proves just one point… GM is making so much profit on the sell of these vehicles even with engine failures-replacements the major shareholders don’t care. As has been mentioned, the masses will keep buying them.
