Product Description

The K&N 70-3070 NextGen Aluminum Cold Air Intake is a vehicle-specific performance intake system developed for 2009-2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 models equipped with the applicable 4.8L, 5.3L, or 6.2L V8 engine. The system replaces the restrictive factory intake path with a rigid 6063 aluminum tube and a custom NextGen air box designed to improve airflow while helping protect incoming air from engine-bay heat.

K&N rates the 70-3070 for up to a 23% increase in intake airflow, with dyno-tested gains of up to 15.3 horsepower and 13.3 lb-ft of torque. These gains are designed to be achieved on the stock engine tune. The oversized washable and reusable cotton-gauze filter uses a radius-entry design to provide increased filter surface area and is designed for extended service intervals under normal highway driving conditions.

The intake also provides a more aggressive induction sound during acceleration while avoiding excessive drone at cruising speeds. Quick-Lock technology simplifies filter installation, and the aluminum tube receives a gunmetal gray powder-coated finish. Confirm the Silverado 1500 model year and engine before installation because this part number has verified fitment for the 2009-2013 generation rather than later Silverado 1500 generations.
