After a fair amount of highway driving, it is pretty evident that these engines without an intake resonator have a pretty loud drone. I may have been too quick to buy a civilian intake resonator that appeared to attached to our intake housings, but it doesn't look like it?
Im pretty sure the bracket I got was bent at the bottom, but I think the holes in the red circles are the ones used for this?

But it appears even if I use those holes, the bracket itself would not line up with the ribs on the resonator, which I assume is where this bracket is supposed to clamp on to. And if I did move the bracket into place, I looks like the part that clamps to the intake housing wouldnt be close enough.

The part that clamps to the intake housing doesn't look wide enough. I tried forcing it on with no luck. This makes me think the civilian diesel intake filter housings had a different shape?

Is there a different civi intake I could put on to match this resonator?
Did the military ever put a full intake plenum on these trucks?
