A steel heat shield is incorporated to isolate the intake air from the heat generated by the engine, ensuring cooler air intake temperatures which contribute to improved combustion efficiency and power output. The system’s design focuses on durability, ease of maintenance, and performance gains without compromising engine protection.
Installing the K&N 71 Series Blackhawk Cold Air Intake results in an estimated horsepower gain of 8.09 HP at 2400 RPM and an estimated torque increase of 14.3 lb-ft. These improvements translate into better throttle response, enhanced acceleration, and improved towing capability for your Dodge Ram 5.9L diesel. Additionally, the intake produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without being intrusive.
The Blackhawk Cold Air Intake is designed for a direct bolt-on installation that replaces the factory air filter and intake tube. Installation typically takes 90 minutes or less and requires only simple hand tools, making it accessible for most DIY enthusiasts. No permanent modifications or cutting are necessary, ensuring that the intake can be removed or serviced with ease.

ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
