I'm going to need to change my air filter soon and I can't find anybody that sells aftermarket except K&N. Of course this isn't a straight replacement, you have to put in a new snorkel to accomodate the filter. From the instructions, it looks like an involved procedure and I was wondering if anybody here as done it. Secondarily, does anybody know of an aftermarket source for a direct replacement filter?

I bought my first replacement filter from a GM dealer in SD for $45. Just ordered another one off EBay.
It is WIX # 46907.

I just checked, the Carquest our shop deals with has the above mentioned Wix filter my cost was just over $40 with a list of $87 
My ACDelco parts search turned up a part# of A2032C but searching my ACDelco supplier my computer didnt like that part number for some reason and couldn't find it.

Thanks for that part number. I'll wander down to my local NAPA and see if they have it.

According to several posts I have read at diesel place the K&N does not improve performance on the 5500 with Duramax.

I believe that could be true, the stock filter is enormous!!!

JohnInAz, I cut and pasted the following from a post I made back in January:
I was looking for a K&N air filter for the big gasser in my Kodiak but couldn't find any. However I did find what appears to be an identical oiled cotton filter made by AFE (Advanced Flow Engineering). The specs looked good so I ordered one. This thing is very high quality and actually looks like it came off of the K&N assembly line. I installed the AFE filter and immediately noted an improvement in acceleration. Sorry I don't have any more before/after specific performance data on this. I've used K&N filters for years so the first thing I always do with any new vehicle is install one. So after my initial search, I was happy to locate the AFE filter. Cost was a little over $95 on-line with free UPS shipping.
