Not sure what your price range is but the GM Performance cold Air Intake is awesome!  Goes really well with my Borla exhaust.

I had the high chrome Cold Air Inductions intake on my 2016 6.2 I liked the look and the sound.  I am contemplating installing it on my 17 I just have not gotten around to it yet. Lost one of the high

I have an ariaid MIT set up that is new with the dry filter that I bought for my 5.3 I wanted to put it on my 6.2 but the TB connector needs to be bigger. I've herd the tube is the same size for the 5.3 and the 6.2 so I keep the set up. I was thinking of selling it if I don't find the correct connector. Any know of the connector I need . Or anyone interested in the set up.

The Airaid site has a build your own section might check in there to see if they offer the collar separate. Thay also have a “chat” feature could ask them about it.

AFE's kit came with a reducer-tapered 5.3L intake boot and a larger straight boot for the 6.2L. I am not sure how Airaid does there kit, but it may come with both but make sure. If it was a straight boot, you could just get a silicon boot at any auto parts store but you would need the diameter of the tube, and the intake to source a boot. I still have my 5.3L boot for my AFE kit I would give away, but the tube is likely a different diameter than the Airaid.

I really like the new Intake. It’s done very well on some minor gains of mpg when I added bigger tires too. No complaints!!  My advice though, buy a second air filter to swap in. Will save a lot of headaches waiting on the filter to dry etc  before reinstalling

If you are using GM's filter it is disposable and not to be washable

Good idea bc that oil does take forever to dry and then you get oil on your sensor... warranty voided.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
