Product Description

The K&N E-1986 is a premium drop-in replacement air filter built for heavy-duty van applications such as the Chevy Express and GMC Savana series equipped with 4.8L or 6.0L V8 engines from 2008 through 2020. Unlike standard disposable filters, this unit uses washable cotton-gauze media layered to deliver increased engine airflow while maintaining high filtration efficiency. The round form-factor ensures seamless installation into the factory air box with no modifications required.

Installation is straightforward: remove your original air filter, install the E-1986 unit, and you're ready. It is especially useful for fleet trucks, commercial vans, or any application where durability, longevity, and reduced maintenance are valued. Over a vehicle's life, this filter can save significant cost versus repeated stock filter replacements, backed by K&N's No-Hassle Lifetime Limited Warranty.

This part is ideal for owners of Chevy Express or GMC Savana vans looking to boost engine efficiency, maintain strong airflow under load, or reduce recurring maintenance. Fitment is confirmed through 2020; coverage for 2021-2025 is unconfirmed at the time of listing.
