While simple in principle, the S-Flo for the 2.7l twin turbo produces quite tangible increases in engine power and smoothness. The improvements are from a combination of air filter design (the unique venturi shaped base of the ITG filter) and the precise mandrel bent transition tube. Our scan tool measurements recorded an average increase of 25 grams-per-second of air through the mass air flow sensor (MAF), with a dramatically smoother flow curve. We believe you will be quite pleased with the S-Flo. Thank you for your purchase!

This blower motor has undergone some changes in design so the installation procedures have also changed. The original motor was a two piece motor and the wheel was secured with a set screw. GM changed the design to a one piece unit with a fiberglass heat shield and the wheel is pressed on. On some of the models you may need to remove the front cradle bolts so the engine can be rocked forward. This will help keep the valve cover from interfering with the blower motor replacement. On all models; disconnect the negative battery cable.

Remove Factory Radio
STEP 1: Locate and remove two (2) phillips screws that secure the top of the plastic panel that covers the radio and air conditioner controls. They should be located next to the air conditioner vent levers directly above the (2) air conditioner vents. Pull the plastic panel gently from the top to remove it from the dash.
STEP 2: The radio will be held in with two (2) 7mm bolt screws; one on each side of the radio. Remove both.
STEP 3: To remove the radio, pull firmly. Unplug all connectors (1 blue, 1 white, 1 black) from the rear of the radio. Unplug the antenna cable from the rear of the radio. The radio is now free to be removed from the dash panel.
STEP 4: Since the opening is so big in the dash, The Install Doctor recommends using the plastic mounting bracket attached to the bottom of the radio just removed.
This bracket can then be attached to the bottom of the plastic radio installation kit and assure that this kit is properly aligned and secured to the dash.
