Banks Power 42804-R Monster-Ram Intake & Killer Grid Heater Upgrade Kit Chassis Cab 6.7L Cummins

The Banks Power 42804-R Monster-Ram Intake and Killer Grid Heater Upgrade is a high-performance intake system designed specifically for Chassis-Cab applications equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. This kit combines Banks' renowned Monster-Ram intake manifold with the Killer Grid Block-Off Heater upgrade, delivering improved airflow efficiency and cold-weather starting performance for heavy-duty Ram trucks.

The Monster-Ram intake manifold features a larger, more aerodynamic inlet plenum that dramatically reduces intake restriction compared to the factory manifold. The smoother, straighter airflow path feeds the turbocharger more efficiently, translating directly to improved throttle response, increased horsepower, and reduced exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) under load—critical for Chassis-Cab operators who frequently tow or haul at high capacity.

The Killer Grid Block-Off Heater component replaces the problematic factory grid heater, which is a known failure point on the 6.7L Cummins platform. The Killer Grid eliminates the resistance caused by the OEM heater element in the intake stream while retaining reliable cold-start capability, protecting your engine and maintaining drivability in cold climates.

Key Features:

• Monster-Ram high-flow intake manifold for maximized airflow to the 6.7L Cummins
• Killer Grid heater upgrade replaces the failure-prone factory grid heater element
• Designed exclusively for Chassis-Cab body configurations (not compatible with standard pickup bed models)
• Reduces intake air restriction for improved throttle response and lower EGTs
• Promotes longer engine life by eliminating a common OEM failure point
• Direct bolt-on installation — no cutting or welding required
• Finished in red powder coat for a clean, professional underhood appearance
• Compatible with 2013–2018 Ram 3500, 4500, and 5500 with the 6.7L Cummins diesel

Built to Banks Power's exacting standards, the 42804-R is engineered and tested for demanding work-truck environments. Whether your Chassis-Cab is running a flatbed, service body, or dump application, this upgrade delivers real-world performance and reliability gains you can count on day in and day out.
