Better airflow starts before the air even reaches the intake tube.

The PPE Zilla Carbon Fiber Air Box Lid features 100% dry/prepreg carbon fiber construction and an integrated velocity stack designed to provide smooth, uninterrupted airflow.

The result is better throttle response, accurate air-fuel ratio, and efficient engine operation across the RPM range, all while retaining OEM mounting locations for easy installation.

Part #315001060

Available in Twill Weave or Forged Carbon.

Transmission temperatures climbing? The restriction might be hiding in the cooling path.

The factory thermal bypass valve can restrict fluid flow to the transmission cooler. PPE’s billet aluminum Thermal Bypass Valve is designed to maximize flow to and from the cooler while adding a serviceable neodymium magnetic plug to help capture ferrous debris.

More fluid flow through the cooling system means the cooler has a better opportunity to do its job.

Hard work looks different when you’re building something you’re proud of.

To the mechanics, DIY installers, fabricators, and truck enthusiasts who spend their time turning wrenches and solving problems, this one’s for you.

Happy Labor Day from PPE.

NEW PRODUCT DROP. More airflow. More cooling. Less heat.
The 8L90 transmission behind the GM 2.7L can rely on a small factory heat exchanger that uses hot engine coolant for temperature control.

PPE takes a different approach.

This auxiliary transmission cooler features a massive 231 cubic-inch all-aluminum bar-and-plate core that uses ambient air to dissipate heat. The result is a potential temperature drop of up to 50°F.

Built for real-world driving, towing, hauling, and keeping transmission temperatures in check when the workload increases.

A simple rule in any build: heat management matters.

One small plastic part can cause a big cooling system headache.

The factory thermostat cover on the 6.7L Power Stroke can become brittle over time from repeated heat cycles.

PPE replaces it with a precision-cast 304 stainless steel cover designed for strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.

It retains compatibility with the factory thermostat housing, upper radiator hose, and mounting hardware.

Sometimes preventative maintenance means looking at the small parts before they become big problems.

The foundation of airflow matters.

The PPE Lower Intake Manifold Kit for the 2004.5-2010 GM 6.6L Duramax is built from durable A356.0-T6 aluminum with 50% thicker walls for added strength, durability, and heat resistance.

For LLY applications, the larger 32% inlet design helps support improved airflow.

Factory mounting locations are retained, and CNC-machined gasket grooves help create a tight seal.

Strong airflow starts before the air ever reaches the top of the engine.

What makes us smile? This.

If you’re a gearhead, you understand. A clean new part, a fresh build, and the satisfaction of seeing everything come together.

Some people see parts. We see possibilities.
What makes you stop scrolling at a truck show?

Your transmission might be running hotter than you think.

Towing, hauling, steep grades, and added power all create more transmission heat.

For the 2006 to 2010 6.6L Duramax, the PPE Bar and Plate Transmission Cooler increases cooling capacity with a 209 cubic-inch core that is 106% larger than stock.

It also has an 18% larger frontal area and dense louvered fins to improve heat transfer.

PPE reports temperature drops of up to 40°F under demanding conditions.

If you work your truck hard, transmission temperature is one number worth watching.

Small part. Big difference in engine bay cleanup.

The factory oil filler tube can add unnecessary length and clutter to a performance-focused Duramax engine bay.

The PPE Engine Oil Fill Delete Plug replaces it with a compact billet aluminum plug designed for high-performance applications. It is CNC machined, includes a Viton O-ring, and is commonly used alongside the PPE Duramax Dry Sump Pan.

A clean engine bay is often the result of paying attention to the details.

Normal people see truck parts. We see works of art.

Some people collect shoes.

Some people collect watches.

We apparently collect opinions about engines and truck parts.

Cooling systems. Turbochargers. Intake components. Filters. Differential covers.

If it bolts onto a truck, chances are we’ve spent way too much time talking about it.

Maybe we love this stuff a little too much.

Actually, never mind. There is no such thing.
