      Justin: Hey, everybody, Justin with americantrucks.com. And today, we're breaking down and installing the RedRock Cold Air Intake, available for all 2019 and newer 5.3 and 6.2 Silverados and Sierras at home. Now, you should be checking out this particular RedRock option if you're looking for one of the most affordable intakes on the site without a polished finish to help deliver a little bit more power and a little bit more sound to your 5.3 or 6.2 without the use of any custom or CAN tuning.So, when talking features here with the RedRock intake, I would say the biggest draw is gonna be the combination of both power and sound, thanks to ditching that factory air box and restrictive cheap paper element filter in favor of a high-flow reusable filter from RedRock. Now, this is an oiled filter which can be cleaned and re-oiled over time, which, ultimately, will save you some money from having to replace that filter every 10,000 miles or so.Now, we're not talking massive gains here from the no-tune required intake by itself, but anywhere from high single-digits to low double-digit gains will be, I would say, best-case scenario for most owners. Now, on top of that, adding a deeper growl from your 5.3 or your 6.2 under acceleration should also be expected along with adding a more modified look under the hood.Now, construction is gonna be pretty standard here in the world of aftermarket intakes, at least at this price point, and that does include things like your aluminum intake tube finished in a satin black powder coat. You're also looking at a matching heat shield here with included weatherstripping to help block out some of that hot engine bay air from entering the filter.We also have the reusable filter, which we've already talked about at length here. And then, of course, you got all of your couplers, hardware, all of that good stuff needed for a very painless installation. I do also wanna point out again that this system will apply to both 5.3 or 6.2 V8-powered Silverados or Sierras, and does not require the use of any custom or CAN tuning.Price point is gonna hover right around that low $200 range, which I think seems pretty fair, and at this time, it is the most affordable system on the site that does not feature a polished or chrome tube.Switching gears, let's get into the install. And the site's gonna call this pretty solid one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter, taking you about an hour at absolute most to complete from start to finish. What do you say we head out to the shop now for our detailed walkthrough and tool breakdown?Man: For this install, you will need a ratchet, an adapter, T15 and T20 Torx bits, 10-millimeter socket, 10-millimeter wrench, flat and Phillips head screwdrivers, a pair of pliers, and a clip removal tool. What's up, guys? Today, we're gonna be installing a cold air intake, so let's get started.So, now that we have our hood popped, we can go ahead and start the process of removing our factory intake. And our first step is gonna be to unplug our MAF sensor from our intake tube. And to do that, we're gonna go ahead and pull back this red safety tab here, and then go ahead and push down and unplug our MAF sensor. Next, we can go ahead and loosen our clamp from our flex tube to our air box. Make sure that's nice and loose.So, our next step is gonna be to remove the three 8-millimeter bolts for the top of our air box. And to do that, we're gonna use our 8-millimeter socket and extension on our ratchet. And the back one's kind of hard to see here, but it is located pretty much in the center of the rear side of the air box, and this other one here is in the corner. Then we have our front one.So, now that we have those bolts out, we can go ahead and remove our air box lid. And to do that, we're gonna grab it here under our flex side, kind of pull it out of its slots on the far side, and go ahead and pull it up. And just kind of work it out of the way and go ahead and remove it.So, now we can go ahead and pull our OEM air filter out, move that aside. So, now we can go ahead and remove this 10-millimeter nut off of our lower air box. It's located right under the harness connector. And go ahead and save that because we will need it for our new installation. So, next, you want to go ahead and pull your harness connector off of the mount on the lower air box. And for that, we're gonna need a pick, and go ahead and push the clip in, and go ahead and pull up on your connector and pop that out of place.So, next, we can go ahead and remove our upper radiator shroud. Now, before we do that, we have to remove our hood latch release handle. And to do that, we're gonna need our T15 Torx bit, an adapter, and our ratchet, and go ahead and remove the two T15 Torx bolts holding it in. And then just go ahead and slide that out of place. And you can go ahead and thread your bolts back in a couple of threads just for safekeeping. You can go ahead and set your handle aside.Next, we can go ahead and remove the 10 push clips holding our shroud in place. And to do that, we're gonna use our clip removal tool and go ahead and pop them up and out. Now that we have those out, we can go ahead and remove our shroud and set it aside.So, now that we have our shroud out of the way, we're gonna go ahead and remove our push clip on our air routing tube. And to do that, we're gonna use our clip removal tool. Go ahead and pop that out just so we can move this around.So, for our next step, we will be loosening up this clamp located at our throttle body to our intake tube, and that is right down under this box here. And to do that, we're gonna grab our flathead screwdriver., and then go ahead and loosen up this clamp. And this is located directly on your throttle body underneath your main box here. And once you have that loosened up, we can go ahead and disconnect our PCV hose from our intake. Now, sometimes it is a struggle to get onto your valve cover side, so what you can do is go ahead and disconnect it from your intake side, rotate it, and then have better access to the clips holding it in on your valve cover.So, to do this, we'll go ahead and just reach down in, we'll grab our two gray clips, push in on them, and then pull out PCV hose, disconnect that from our intake side, and then we can rotate it around and get it off from our valve cover side. And the same deal for this. Go ahead and just pinch your two gray clips and pull it up. Go ahead and remove that.Now, once you have that off and your clamp loosened, we can go ahead and remove our intake tube from our throttle body. And just for safekeeping, you want to go ahead and reconnect your PCV hose to your intake tube. We can go ahead and set that aside.Next, we can go ahead and remove our lower intake box. And to do that, we're gonna pull it up over the stud. We can go ahead and remove it from its other mounting spots. So, once you have your lower air box up over the stud and the two rubber rear mounting points, you can grab onto your air routing tube, and go ahead and pull that out from your air box. Go ahead and lift it up, making sure it's not grabbing onto anything coming out. You may have to move a few things out of the way. Go ahead and remove your lower air box and set that aside.So, before we can move on to the truck with our new intake, we're gonna need to go ahead and grab our original lower air box and transfer this mounting grommet from the stud to our new air box. So, to do that, we can just simply go ahead and pop out our metal insert and go ahead and work our grommet out of place here. I'm gonna go ahead and replace our grommet into our new air box, just like that, and then go ahead and reinsert our metal spacer.Next, we can go ahead and install our harness mounting bracket to our new air box. And to do that, we're gonna use our M6 bolt, a flat washer, and a locking nut. And you want your U-bracket to go ahead and face down towards the grommet you just installed. Go ahead and slide your bolt into place, install your locking nut. And to tighten that down, we're gonna be using our 10-millimeter socket on our ratchet and a 10-millimeter wrench. And once you get it snug, you can go ahead and locate it how you want.Next, we can go ahead and install our filter adapter to our air box. And to do that, we're gonna go ahead and use two M6 bolts, two lock washers, and two flat washers, and go ahead and get your adapter into place. And to tighten these down, we will be using our 10-millimeter socket on our ratchet.Next, we can go ahead and attach our studded grommet to our air box. To do that, you need your M6 lock nut and a flat washer. And to tighten this down, we're gonna be using our 10-millimeter socket on our ratchet.So, our next step is going to be installing our weatherstripping on our heat shield. To do that, you're gonna take your long piece and route it all the way up and around the outer perimeter. And then you're gonna take your short piece and run it around where your intake tube comes in. To do that, we're simply gonna slide it in place on the groove side.Once you have a good location of where your weatherstripping is gonna end, you can go ahead and grab angle cutters because these do have steel inserts. Go ahead and trim that off. And then go ahead and do your final fit for your weatherstripping. And then we can move on to our short piece. Now we can mount our weatherstripping to where our intake routing tube is gonna come in. And the same process for that. Go ahead and get it into your grooved side of your weatherstripping and work it into place. And you may have to shift it around a bit to make sure it's even. And now we can move on to the truck.So, the new heat shield is a very tight fit, so you may need to go ahead and unbolt your coolant reservoir, which we've already gone and done. And there is a 10-millimeter bolt here down at the bottom right and two studs up top. And once you have those unbolted, you can go ahead and pull this out and move it up out of your way.So, once you have your reservoir unbolted, you can go ahead and remove this line closest to your driver's side body panel. Go ahead and grab some needle-nose pliers, loosen your clamp, slide it off of the edge there. Go ahead and remove this coolant line.Now, it's a good idea to plug this line so you don't get any coolant leaks. If you have a cap or something, or even just some tape like we have here, go ahead and tape over this line just temporarily to prevent any coolant leaking out when you move your reservoir. And we can go ahead and move that up out of place. Now we can go ahead and start to lower our heat shield into place, making sure it doesn't catch on anything. You may need to move some harnesses out of the way.So, now you can go ahead and set your studded grommet on the backside down into the mounting hole. It's tough to get to. And you can go ahead and line your front grommet up to the mounting stud.So, once you have your heat shield lowered down into place and your studded grommet mounted in the backside tab here, and your grommet on the front located on your factory stud, you can go ahead and make sure nothing's being pinched or in the way. And then we can route our intake routing tube to the bottom of our heat shield here.So, to mount your studded grommet, you're gonna use your 25-millimeter M6 flat washer and your M6 lock nut. Go ahead and install those. Now, there is a harness back here you may have to move out of the way temporarily. To do that, just pull your clip out. And then to tighten that down, we're gonna use our 10-millimeter socket on our ratchet.Next, we can go ahead and reuse our factory 10-millimeter nut. Go ahead and mount that on our front stud. And we can go ahead and tighten that down using our 10-millimeter socket and extension on our ratchet. Next, we can go ahead and secure our harness to our new front connector. Go ahead and snap that down into place.So, for our next step, we're gonna grab our factory air box and remove the MAF sensor and transfer that over to our new intake tube. And to do that, we're gonna use our T20 Torx bit and our ratchet. Go ahead and remove that. So, for our new tube, we're gonna first want to go ahead and remove our two Phillips head screws in our MAF sensor mount. And for that, we'll use our Phillips head screwdriver. And then we can go ahead and transfer our MAF sensor to our new tube, and go ahead and use your screws. We'll go ahead and tighten them down, again, using our Phillips head screwdriver.So, once you have everything ready to go back on the truck, you can go ahead and reinstall your coolant reservoir. And using your 10-millimeter bolt at the bottom and your two studs up top, you can go ahead and reattach your coolant hose if you did indeed remove it. Go ahead and slide your coolant line back on. You can go ahead and remove your clamp back into place using your pliers.So, now we can go ahead and get our 4-inch coupler on our air filter side for our intake tube. Go ahead and slide that into place. Make sure you slide your clamp into place too and go ahead and snug that down. We're using our flathead screwdriver for that. So, that's nice and snug. We can move on to our air tube side. Go ahead and slide our other clamp on first. Go ahead and slide your air tube into place. Don't tighten this clamp down yet because we still have to do our throttle body side.So, next, we can go ahead and put our adapter coupler onto our throttle body side. And if you have a 5.3, you're gonna go ahead and use the 3-inch to 4-inch adapter. And if you have a 6.2, you can go ahead and use the straight 4-inch to 4-inch, making sure it bottoms out on the lip of your throttle body. And I'll double-check the bottom, make sure it isn't pinched or curled. And then you can go ahead and tighten down your clamp. And using your flathead screwdriver, make sure everything's in line all the way back to your air box. Go ahead and tighten down all your intake clamps.So, next, we can go ahead and install our new PCV tube onto our intake side and our valve cover side. We're gonna go ahead and work this new tube over both sides. Slide that down into place. You can go ahead and get those sides on. Now, you can cut this down to whatever length you would like if you would like a more sleek fit. We're just gonna go ahead with the full length on ours. It should be around there in good ways. Go ahead and use your flathead screwdriver and get your clamps in place. You can go ahead and tighten down your clamp on your valve cover side.Next, you can go ahead and reconnect your MAF sensor, making sure that snaps into place. And go ahead and reset your safety pin. Make sure that's nice and secure. So, next, we can go ahead and install our air filter to our air filter adapter.So, now that we have our air filter in place, we can go ahead and tighten down our clamp using our flathead screwdriver. And make sure that's nice and secure. So, once you have everything bolted up for your intake, you can come back out to your air inlet tube. Go ahead and reinstall your push pin, then we can move on to our upper radiator shroud. Now we can go ahead and put our radiator shroud back into place. Then we can go ahead and reinstall our 10 push pins located around your shroud.Next, you can go ahead and slide back on your hood latch release handle and reinstall your two T15 Torx bolts. And we can go ahead and tighten them down using our T15 Torx bit and our ratchet.All righty, guys. That about wraps up our review and install of our RedRock Cold Air Intake in Black finish for your '19 to current Silverado 1500, 5.3-Liter and 6.2-Liter. Thank you for watching.
