LBZ mouthpiece

[whitetrash21]

I've done two of these mods, one on our 05 tow dually, it was awful before, no power, got hot quick and didn't pull the hills well at all towing our race trailer, (15,000lbs). Installed a AFE 4" exhaust (turbo back) and an entire LBZ stock intake, (Rob had to adjust the voltages or the MAF would limp the motor) and it is a whole new truck. Way more power, runs much cooler both egt's and engine temp. I would have never thought such a simple mod could make such a huge difference.

My thoughts exactly. Couldn't believe the difference it made.

The other one was on a buddy's 05 which he tows a 34' Montana 5th wheel. His truck smoked bad even on a 65hp Predator tune. He still has the stock exhaust and I left the PCV crap on at his insistence. The intake was a mod offered by RickD. Easy install, truck much less lag, runs cooler, no smoke. He's a happy camper. Trying to get him to do an exhaust and egr blocker along with the PCV reroute. He's a retired engineer and a bit of a rock head.

The hardest part of any of this is getting my old body draped over the engine so I could get that mouth piece changed out. I need one of those engine work stands you can lay on and use both hands. I'm getting to old to do this crap.

That part about the engine work stands is the truth. I didnt let mine cool off, so I had my ass sitting on a 200* engine, yanking parts. Kind burns the ass a little....

Here are some pics of what I did. I molded my own 4" carbon fiber mouthpiece.

Does anyone have pics of the LBZ mouthpiece next to the LLY?

Damn Jon!! That looks nice.

I didnt take any but I know from holding the two up to each other, that the LLY mp was a joke. Necks down to something like 2.25"....

I was close. I used a tape measure, not exactly the right tool for the job.

Not exactly side by side, but I found a couple individual pics. LBZ MP is the first one, LLY the second.
