Cold Air Intake Kit with Filter 1988-1995 Fit for Chevrolet GMC C/K/R/V C1500 C2500 C3500 K1500 K2500 K3500 for Suburban 1500 2500 Engine 4.3L V6 5.0L 5.7L V8 (Silver Tube & Black Filter)

Got this for my 78 Mercury with a 403 stroker fueled by Aces EFI (go check them out!!!). I was surprised it was metal when I got it, the pictures made it look like plastic. Anyways, as ALL chinese companies are the package will NOT arrive looking pretty, sure theres a few scratches on mine but you cannot see it unless you're looking for a problem. If you're on the fence about this purchase just get it, if you've got a carb or TBI its gonna fit regardless of the specifications.Very impressed with the quality. As with all CAIs you're gonna need extra tubing to actually see noticeable improvement in power. out of the box, no matter where you put it it's just a "slightly cooler hot air intake" :)As I said, carb or TBI it'll fit. Highly recommend

Easy peasy connected right up.

Well it fits as it should however, the tube that hooks up to the back side of the housing is extremely to big, the rubber elbow that was on it will not go over it or go inside of it,so I just have the plastic tube stuffed into the hole on the housing until I figure out a fix.

The media could not be loaded. Excellent upgrade for my Chevy truck! The silver tube and black filter combination looks sharp under the hood. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality is solid with good fitment. I've noticed improved engine sound and throttle response after installing. The black filter element appears well-made and the stainless steel clamps hold everything securely. Great value for the performance gains - would definitely recommend for other C/K series truck owners!This highlights the:- Appearance and build quality- Installation experience- Performance benefits- Value proposition- Specific vehicle compatibility

Kit missing parts

The kit I received has a better overall material build quality than I expected based on other reviews. However, it does have some issues keeping it from hitting 5 stars. This is very much a case of "you get what you pay for" when you compare it to the $300+ alternatives. It fits my needs for a specific issue I'm trying to solve on a custom build (I swapped Vortec accessories into my TBI truck and couldn't clear the Vortec air conditioning manifold with the factory air box), but I'm not sure this is a very good option as an actual performance upgrade.The factory TBI setup is already designed to suck in cold air through the fender, and can be improved for airflow from a few free modifications. This kit sucks in warmer air from inside the engine bay rather than completely through the fender, though it hypothetically should have higher airflow than the factory setup (if your engine can make use of it). Since it relocates the filter to the side of the engine instead of directly on top, this should be a slight upgrade over the classic "lid flip" or an open element filter. It's a tradeoff where the compromises probably balance out for negligible performance improvement in most cases though. The more expensive options are designed to isolate the air intake from the engine bay for a reason, you want the ambient air temperature flowing into the filter to be colder than the inside of the entire engine bay. However, if you're a firm believer in running an open element or a lid flip, you'll likely see advantages here at a more affordable price than the "proper" cold air upgrades.

Product looks amazing! Fits just like I expected. The coating looks better than what I expected it to come with but coating durability is to be determined. I will be buying more of these. I installed it on my 1993 gmc k1500 mud truck

If you don't mind doing a little modification it's great for the price93 c1500And it looks like bad graffiti at the skate park
