NoLegs Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 What grommet? Yeah, what grommet are you talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 nah, one is for a 6.0L non-SS, the other is for the SS How are the kits different? The stock 4.8/5.3/6.0 all use the same airbox/MAF/Throttle body from the factory, which would mean everything should fit just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, in those f'd up volant instructions it says if you own a SSS you need part #15153 that includes a grommet from volant for fitting from the tube to the throttle body, I called volant yesterday, they are sending me the grommet for free so when I get it I will compare it to the one that came off the stock intake and see whats different.

kweber1911 Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 from what ive heard....everything is the same except the 15053 is a bit tighter on the throttle body. i would say everything should be fine. but i dunno for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 what is this grommet though, is it the piece that goes on the end of the tube so it fits on the TB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobradh77 Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 (edited) I just used the stock rubber from the OEM intake that fits to the TB. No problems. Edited June 24, 2007 by brobradh77 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just it though, the throttle bodies are the same as are the intake pieces stock vs stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
