Also, has anyone experienced a vibration in the brake and gas pedals after installing a can?

 

I have no idea why it would have caused anything like that. I ran crc valve cleaner through it prior to putting the can on.

This is with the K&N 77-3082KP. They send you hose clamps that attach to the cold air intake.

mine vibrated a bit in the gas the morning after I installed it. I have since reflashed the ecu and reset the LTFTs and it has seemed to have gone away.

 

That being said I wish we had a document denoting the check valve orientations so I can check if mine are correct.

Just a quick heads up on the arrow and flow direction of the UPR Check Valves. The UPR Check Valves always flow away from the UPR Catch Can and they are installed on the UPR WOT line and the UPR Clean Side Line. The arrow always faces away from the UPR Catch Can.

I just got the PM this morning. Sorry for the late response.

 

There is a normal amount of rock with the 1.390" UPR Plug n Play™ filler neck fitting due to the valve cover design. I just want to be sure no one received the smaller

earlier GM unit see details below.

 

If you guys can take a quick measurement on the bottom of the UPR Plug n Play™ filler neck fitting and let me know what the size is to make sure you have the correct fitting.

 

The diameter should be 1.390" for the 14+ trucks. If you have the 1.320" that is for the earlier GM I will get it corrected right away.

 

Thank you, Joe

Just checked mine and it's correct. 1.39" and change. Again, all my play is from the plastic tube like I said earlier but just wanted to confirm measurements...it's the engineer in me. Thanks for the info Joe!

Hi Joe,

 

I just received my kit today and wanted to install the kit this weekend but looks like I might have to get the newer filler neck fitting? This measures at 1 5/16" (1.3125"). I have a 2016 Sierra.

Take a full picture of the bottom without the tape in the way so we can see the receiver channels on each side should be different in size on the larger 1.390" unit and the smaller 1.320" unit has the same size receiver channels on each side. If this is the case I will send out the correct part with a call tag for the part you received. BTW, what size shirt do you wear and I will throw one in for you. We have some really cool new American Flag Team UPR shirts we just came out with.

Also I had a question, is there a way to take the can apart? Like I have seen other cans have a bottom half you can unscrew so you can see the oil inside and empty it?

I have updated the design so it never has to be disassembled to be cleaned. The new design can be cleaned very easily by removing the center line on the top and just pour hot water with dish soap in it then drain it then leave the petcock open and simply run one gallon of fresh water through it and it will perform flawlessly. I have been working on the design to be the most efficient and simple to maintain. You don't have to clean it if you prefer not to. But, if you insist then it can be done once a year. The UPR Catch Can internals have been designed to require zero maintenance and last forever. We use Red Loc-Tite on everything to eliminate any assembly issue and be sure it lasts forever.

 

Many people used to take the systems apart and ruin the UPR Plug n Play™ Fittings and O-rings. So designed the system to be sealed and require zero maintenance to last a LIFETIME.

PM me your invoice number and contact info and I'll get you set up right away. Also, let me know what size shirt you wear and I'll include

it with the correct UPR Plug n Play™ Filler Neck fitting. I'm glad you guys got right back to me so I could straighten this out for you.

 

Thanks for the fast response.

Already got the invoice for the new part. Thanks for the great service. I understand things happen and I appreciate the fast response to fix it..

 

I will say the kit is great and super easy to install. The factory connectors really make it look like something that came on the truck to begin with. My only recommendation would be to change the instructions and pictures for installing the CSS.

      primary drive belt tensioner

      By Deadwood · Posted

      I bought belts and pulleys for my '20 L5P at Rock Auto a couple years ago. I have used them for many years, and almost always save significant money, especially when I buy maintenance stuff ahead of time.   They carry many OEM parts, which is all I use unless an aftermarket is shown to be same/superior, or if it is an insignificant part or unavailable OEM part anywhere else. RA is usually lower priced, often by a bunch, but parts are sometimes unavailable or out of stock, and I do shop around and sometimes find better prices at other sites.   Be aware that you pay shipping, and if you buy multiple items and they are coming from different warehouses, the shipping can kill the advantage. Planning ahead is best if possible.   If you have a transmission service in the near future, check out their OEM (AC Delco ULV) fluid, usually MUCH less than anywhere else.

      10L1000 anyone with High Mileage ? I hate Damocles....

      By Deadwood · Posted

      New member here, very long time occasional guest. Saw this thread, thought it would be a good time to contribute someting. It is only my experience and not a claim that everyone will have the same.   I bought my '20 3500 L5P new and have put 99.9% (literally) of it's current ~400k miles on it myself, with over 50% of that towing loads between 4k to 15k, and to me this truck has been nothing short of amazing. For the first 235k I had zero issues, and from there until 321k I replaced a NOx sensor, two failing glow plugs, and three of the notorious injector connectors. I believe this truck is in part, a testament to good luck, but also good care and following a decent maintenance schedule (I also keep meticulous records.) As a result, it looks as good as a well cared for 70k rig, up and down, inside and out.   At some point before that 321k mile mark I began to get a little spooked about the 10L1000, especially the valve body. Word of mouth about potential issues prompted me to jump on the net to sift through all the noise and determine what all the fuss was about. I routinely take long trips, coast-to-coast and points in between, so roadside breakdowns can be '...a thousand miles from nowhere' and a bit of a challenge, and though I had no issues, my guard was up and activated.   And then I stumbled across a chance to salvage some parts off a new 2025 that had been wrecked in transport. I grabbed a few wear items (alternator, pulleys, etc.) and on a whim asked what the ten speeder would cost me. It was cheap...really cheap. I knew some changes had been made in the '24+ version 10L and were supposedly not compatible, but I called service/parts at my local Chevy dealer and asked why and they didn't know. A call to a well known aftermarket transmission outfit revealed it was very likely it would be fine, but to them not 100% sure.   Because it was cheap (really cheap) and I was spooked, I took the chance. Had it installed by a local shop and it worked like a champ, shifted just like the original. At it's first service at 37k, I had the shop put in a Next Gen valve body kit, which after some initial hiccups and rough shifts, smoothed out though with somewhat firmer shifting.   All that said, I have a very serious concern about my newer transmission as just two weeks ago it suddenly began to exhibit a strong reluctance to engage forward or reverse. It was a bit past due anyway so I took it in for service. The reason it was sticking was due to 'glitter' in the fluid clogging the filter...not good folks, often indicates a converter giving out. We ended up going ahead with the new filter and fluid, first to see if it would move and shift, and then if so buy me a little time. It did, and I've driven it over a thousand miles and it is shifting smooth, no noises or slipping. Regardless, it looks like a third gearbox is in my future so I can resume taking long trips with some confidence. In the very short term, my curiosity will have me examining the fluid to check how much glitter has reappeared.   An earlier poster had alleged, in the context of 10L100 failures, that it is another example of how we seasoned citizens somehow descend into hysteria, lose control of our senses, and react irrationally after brief encounters with the idiocy of the internet infosphere. Let me say (and I have used and abused said internet since it's infancy) there is no segment of the populace that has a corner on over-reaction to digital garbage. Just as my offering of experience in this arena is purely anecdotal and should not be considered gospel or all-encompassing, I believe it is still worthwhile information to consider, along with other relevant anecdotal experiences about things like complex transmissions, especially when balanced with other sources.   So to answer the original question, yes I got high miles out of my first 10L, trouble free for 321,000. Now I really wonder how much longer it would have went. Did I 'overreact' to the internet ghouls by replacing a 'good' one with a 'bad' one? Maybe. Who knows, the thing might have taken a puke a 100 miles later. So I'll just fix it again, then move on and start thinking about all the other stuff that will eventually wear out. It still has the original brakes (they're at ~60%), original injectors/pump, turbo, water pump, etc....pretty much original everything. Knock on wood.

      6 Speed vs 8 Speed

      By swathdiver · Posted

      At peak temperature.  They get to cool down and warm up more, especially those with the external cooler.  I have three GMT900s and one of them has over 225K on its original transmission.  Fluid gets changed about every 36K miles, all of it.     It's not the bean counters, it was the government.  They had to meet CAFE standards and other government requirements.   To get around that, we tune them and modify them to our liking.
