The factory heater grid sits in the intake path of the 5.9L Cummins and adds restriction to every breath the engine takes. S&B's Heater Block Delete replaces that OE grid with a plain block-off, and S&B states the swap improves airflow by 30.91%.

The trade-off is simple and worth reading before you order: the grid exists to help with cold starts. S&B positions this part for owners in warm climates where cold starts are not a concern. If your truck sees real winters, think twice.

Fitment

Listed by S&B for 1998-2007 Dodge Ram trucks with the Cummins 5.9L diesel. The source does not break fitment down by cab, bed or specific Ram model, so confirm your truck against part number 76-1005 before ordering.

Questions on whether it suits your climate or setup? Call us and a real human will help.

Questions before you order?

Fitment questions are easier to settle before the box ships. Call or text Carl & Anton at (920) 249-7744 or use the chat — real humans in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, not a call center.
