Product Details

Chevy Silverado 1500 4.8L / 5.3L / 6.2L 2012, 71 Series Blackhawk Induction® Aluminum Textured Black Cold Air Intake System by K&N®. The K&N Blackhawk Induction Air Intake System is a free-flowing, mandrel-bent aluminum tube air intake system that is guaranteed to gain power. It replaces the restrictive factory air filter and air intake housing on some vehicles. This low restriction air intake allows your engine to inhale a larger amount of air than it would from the stock air intake. More air means more power and acceleration.

Installation

This K&N Blackhawk Induction Air Intake System comes with black components including the K&N high-flow air filter and heat shield. The attractive textured black powder-coated tube features a welded, engraved K&N plate giving you a clean, high-performance look under the hood. The intake tube accommodates the factory mass air sensor, EVAP hose and crank case vent hose. The oversized cone shaped air filter is made from an oil-free synthetic filter media that can be used for up to 100,000 miles before cleaning is needed depending on driving conditions. This air intake is relatively easy to install usually in 90 minutes or less using the existing factory mounting points using commonly available tools.


K&N Blackhawk air intakes provide excellent airflow for more power and torque while they protect your engine. Guaranteed to add horsepower, K&N's Blackhawk Induction™ air intake systems are easy to install and produce a killer engine sound. K&N Blackhawk Induction™ air intake systems include the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®.

Best CA Approved Intake
I have no mechanical abilities and installation for this product was easy. My Chevy Tahoe sounds louder and I can feel the difference on higher gears. Highly recommended.

Too Easy!
It took about 45 minutes from start to finish! The K&N filter and hardware looks like it came on the truck. It looks and sounds better, all around satisfaction.

Blackhawk CAI
Looks good in the engine bay. Installation is a little bit of a pain due to the layout of the engine bay, that and you'll have to drill a hole in the bottom of the air box bracket. Other than that it's an easy install.

2010 GMC Sierra Sle.
This product was amazing. I've noticed the difference in sound and the fuel economy. I'm averaging about 23 on the free way now and almost 17 in city with my 2010 GMC Sierra my tanks of gas almost last another we since I've installed it. The installation was simple and everything went together super easy. I would highly suggest this product to anyone who is considering it.

Blackhawk Induction Air Intake
Just installed it, seems to be more responsive, sounds like the old days of 4bbl cars when you mash the gas very impressive.

Overall Good Product
Good product for the money. I installed it on my truck in about a half hour sounds good and it improved my fuel economy by almost 1mpg. I recommend this product to anyone who wants a better sounding vehicle and an improvement in fuel economy. I couldn't really notice a difference in power.
