    c5 vrs zo6 air filter lid

    I have seen the pictures showing the differences in openings between the two and it seems to be significant. Question , why would gm just not use the same lids for both engines (seems similer enough to warrent it) Is it worth the $40 if I stay with delco filters? The engine must breath better...
