The stock airbox is plenty fine for a stock 4.8L motor...a 6.2L barely gains anything from an airbox swap...Literally only a few hp.

Must have had something screwed up with the MAF.

No matter the filter you install, the truck should start and run the same. There is more to your story or something is messed up.

If the tune is set for x amount of air... Plus or minus a little on an open cone filter then u put in a stock airbox that is sucking through a 2x5 hole in the fender with a really thick filter, I do believe that would cause hard starting and a bog when u get on it ... As well as a dtc for detection of running super rich ... That's just what I'm thinking ... My new filter was non oiled
