RDP Plenum Reinforcing Inserts™ - Ford 7.3L 94-Early 99
These billet 7075 Aluminum plenum inserts are a Riffraff Diesel original design and are patent pending. They are made to allow you to clamp down as hard as needed with T-bolt clamps so that you don't have any boost leaks. Fix your bent and crushed stock plenums with our Inserts as well. This is a budget friendly option to buying full billet plenums. Easy install, no special tools needed.
These were designed so as to add the least restriction possible while providing more than adequate structure for clamping. The Plenum Inserts have been machined to within .164" of the OEM diameter so there will not be any measurable affect on EGT's or cfm flow.
These are sold in a pair.
Riffraff Diesel Performance is committed to 100% Made in the USA on this product. All materials are from USA resources. Every machining step is performed in the USA. Every component is assembled in the USA.

Mandatory item
If you are replacing your plenum boots but keeping the factory plenum, this product is mandatory. The reinforcement insert allows extra clamping load on the boots without crushing the factory plenums. Great product.
-
Great quality
These are very easy to install, even on an older intake that might be a bit damaged. You can really crank down on the boots to ensure no leaks.
-
May require trimming of the intake spider
These installed perfectly but they raise the edge of the intake inlet by about an eighth inch. In my case that required me to trim the same amount from the intake spider that comes from the turbo. These made me confident in being able to cinch the t-clamps down tight, eliminate any leaks. I'd say this is a good product.
-
Peace of mind
I got those mostly for peace of mind when attaching the intake boots. I'd read about the potential to accidentally collapse the intake mounting if tightening the bands too much.
These installed easily, will not really restrict flow and will give me peace of mind when clamping down the boots. -
A must with new boots
Quality product, these are a must for your truck. Fixes a known issue of the stock tin plenums. Had to tap both sides in to fit because mine plenums were out-of-round
-
Must have for any stock plenum
I have used these on both my 96 and 99 and it is a must especially if your upgrading boots and clamps. Gives me comfort that they are there and I can seal up the boots with no worry's.

Plenum Insert
I would strongly recommend getting these if you have stock plenums as well as upgrading the plenum boots as well. I had to tap these in a bit to get them in but once seated they fit great
-
Great invention
