I appreciate the info.
This is for a 99 GMC Sierra, with a 5.3L.
I thought I had everything sealed ok...
I put the stock baffles in, and left the void box out, and the noise was still there. Not as bad, but still definitely there. So, I put that back on, and it totally dissapeared.
I was just fearing spending the higher end cash, and getting a horrible end result.
I put it back to stock last night, and its back to its normal snappy self.
I'll check out E-bay and see what I can find.
Thanks again!

I didnt really notice any difference in sound then again I have dual exhaust with the cut-outs open all the time so it would be kinda hard to hear anything anyway. But there isnt any vibration as far as I can tell either. I noticed my engine likes to rev a little easier now though but as far as performance goes cant really tell cause I got a nelson tune built 60e and a stall since the last time I went to the track but Im sure it helped a little. After all its just an intake and there are many places to spend money better.
