Glacier Diesel Power 2013–2024 Ram 6.7L Cummins Air-Boss Intake Plenum – Pickup (1315-ABIP)
Description
The factory 6.7L Cummins intake plenum and grid heater assembly create a significant restriction directly before the intake manifold. For Cummins owners looking to improve airflow, reduce EGTs, and get more from their existing performance upgrades, the Glacier Diesel Power Air-Boss Intake Plenum provides a proven solution.
Designed specifically for 2013–2024 Ram 2500 & 3500 6.7L Cummins Pickup Trucks, the Air-Boss isn't simply a flat grid heater delete plate. It is a CNC-machined billet aluminum, internally elevated intake plenum specifically engineered to increase the available airflow area and improve air distribution toward cylinders 4, 5, and 6.
Through careful machining, Glacier Diesel Power was able to gain approximately .220" of additional internal plenum height while still retaining the factory mounting hardware. That additional internal space creates more room for incoming air to move through the intake system without requiring the cylinder head to be milled for a fabricated intake plenum.
Pair the Air-Boss with one of Glacier Diesel Power's high-flow intake manifolds and you have a serious bolt-on airflow package capable of supporting everything from daily-driven and towing applications to high-performance Cummins builds.
Most importantly, this isn't a generic replacement plate. The Air-Boss is a purpose-built billet performance component designed by Glacier Diesel Power for the 6.7L Cummins platform.

Why Upgrade to the Air-Boss?
Airflow entering the intake manifold first has to make its way through the factory intake plenum and grid heater assembly. Removing the heater eliminates one restriction, but simply replacing it with a flat plate doesn't address the limited space available inside the factory plenum.
That's where the Air-Boss is different.
Instead of being a simple flat delete plate, the Air-Boss extends upward internally to create additional room for airflow. Glacier Diesel Power gained approximately .220" of internal height while maintaining compatibility with the factory mounting hardware.
The result is a bolt-on intake plenum designed to help provide:
- Increased airflow
- Improved airflow toward the rear cylinders
- Reduced intake restriction
- Lower EGTs
- Better use of available fueling
- Improved support for larger turbochargers and performance upgrades
More Than a Grid Heater Delete
There are plenty of flat grid heater delete plates on the market.
The Air-Boss isn't one of them.
The entire purpose behind the Air-Boss design was to take advantage of the limited space above the cylinder head and create additional internal plenum volume without requiring permanent modification to the cylinder head.
That elevated billet design is what separates the Air-Boss from a basic flat plate.
For customers looking for a substantial bolt-on airflow improvement without milling the factory cast plenum from the cylinder head and moving to a fully fabricated intake system, the Air-Boss provides a proven alternative.
Glacier Tech Tip
Removing the factory grid heater means the truck will no longer have the original intake heater in that location.
If you operate your Cummins in colder climates or simply want to retain dependable cold-weather starting capability, Glacier Diesel Power offers the Mega-Flo Arctic Grid Heater systems to relocate intake heating away from the factory intake plenum.
For customers building a more complete high-flow intake system, the Air-Boss can also be paired with the Glacier Diesel Power Mega-Flo S-2 Intake Manifold.
This allows you to address multiple restrictions in the factory intake system rather than simply replacing the grid heater.
Why Choose Glacier Diesel Power?
The Air-Boss is a great example of what Glacier Diesel Power has always been about: don't just remove a restriction—engineer a better solution.
Instead of producing another flat aluminum grid heater delete plate, Glacier designed a billet plenum that uses the available space above the cylinder head to create additional internal clearance and improve airflow where the factory system is most restricted.
The result is a product that's simple in appearance but carefully engineered where it matters.
