Would a UPD lid fit on the Duramax bottom?

These same magazines are the ones that RAVE about anything SLP puts on the shelf, ie. 50 hp from SLP headers. When actually they only made 15 and have the worst clearance problems and are way overpriced. I buy the magazines to see what other enthusiest are doing to their cars and what they run and how they look. I take every tech article with a grain of salt depending on who their sponsors are.

Im not specualting anything and I love GM High Tech Performance(even though I think they need alot more trucks and they would benifit from this) and I dont know if this is even the magazine these articles were in but SLP has to be one of the bigger sponsers because they have numerous pages in these magazines!

Does anyone know the part #'s for the new box Volant says they put out? I just bought mine about 10 days ago part # 15853, is this the new or old one? How would I find out, besides sending emails that get no response?

That is the same PN as the one I purchased 3 years ago. If your MAF mounts directly to the side of the airbox you have an updated system else the "old" one slips the MAF on a tube that sticks out from the airbox about 2-3 inches.

Same here but I'll be damned if I drop coin on a new one. They owe us that adaptor they spoke of months ago.
