As a clean-sheet-of-paper design, the Cummins 5.0 liter V8 turbo diesel brings together a compacted graphite iron (CGI) cylinder block (as used in NASCAR engines), forged steel crankshaft, and high-strength aluminum alloy heads. The engine is also fitted with a two-stage turbocharger configured to operate efficiently at both low and high engine speeds. Coupled with high pressures fuel injection system driven by integrated electronic controls, the fuel system, along with turbo contributes to peak torque of 555 lb-ft and 310 horsepower. If turbo diesel engines can’t get enough of one thing, it’s intake air. A greater volume of air is compressed by the turbo, to which the engine’s computer responds by adding incremental fuel. A fast, simple, and inexpensive way to increase the airflow into your Cummins engine Titan is the installation of a K&N replacement air filter, 33-5048. Installing a K&N filter provides an incremental increase of air flow to the engine up to 50%.
K&N verifies the performance of each filter design through the company’s in-house efficiency testing laboratory, in compliance with ISO 5011 standards. This rigorous testing confirms that K&N filters provide a high volume of intake airflow without sacrificing engine longevity. And once you’ve installed your K&N 33-5048 air filter you’ve eliminated the need to purchase and replace filters for the life of your diesel Titan. The only maintenance necessary is a quick DIY job. At intervals of 50,000 miles (depending on your driving conditions) simply use the K&N air filter cleaning kit to clean and refresh your air filter. Your one K&N air filter is designed to last the lifetime of your vehicle, which K&N guarantees will perform for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles without requiring replacement. The 33-5048 replacement filter fits the following vehicles: 2017 NISSAN TITAN XD 5.0L V8 Diesel Engine - All Models | |||

Sellers raced in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West season finale at All American Speedway in Roseville, California, on Oct. 15. He started 19th and finished 14th. He was entered in four K&N Pro Series races in 2016. John Krebs, who partnered with Sellers to run a three-car team in the K&N Pro Series West, said he and Sellers went on a hunting trip two weeks before the race at Roseville. The Wednesday before the race, Sellers decided he wanted to enter a car. “We did have a car ready for him and we were there,” Krebs said. “He wanted to run.”
“We were best friends,” Krebs said. “It worked out well. “Not many relationships last that long on a handshake. His word was his bond.” Sellers was a valuable asset at the race track for young drivers. He would loan his car to some drivers who didn’t have the resources or the connections to fund their own programs. NASCAR K&N Pro Series West driver Rich De Long III remembers when Sellers loaned him his car when he was starting out.
Krebs said Sellers was the unofficial originator of the NASCAR diversity program. He would find aspiring drivers and give them the opportunity to race before it became an official NASCAR program. “He liked to be somewhat competitive,” Krebs said. “He liked to have people get a taste of it. There was no risk. “Jack just gave people an opportunity to have a shot at it.”
He never finished higher than seventh place in any West Series race. The last time was at Evergreen Speedway in Washington in 2013. He finished in seventh place in five West Series races. He was awarded the NASCAR Sportsmanship Award in 2005. He finished in the top 10 in the West Series standings in seven of eight seasons from 1987 to 1994. His last full season in the K&N Pro Series West was in 2014. He was ninth in the final K&N Pro Series West standings. | |||||

To get the most out of the 803cc L-twin engine, Scrambler owners can now drop legendary K&N performance into the stock air box. The fuel injected Scrambler breathes through a 50mm throttle body that craves more O2. It’s no secret that Ducati twin cylinder models benefit markedly from a more free-flowing air supply and that’s exactly what the DU-8015 replacement filter is engineered to provide. The DU-8015 is specifically designed to facilitate an increased airflow, which is a key factor in elevated performance.
To keep the Ducati running clean, the DU-8015 features several layers of woven cotton gauze media that provide excellent filtration. The air filter cartridge is also carefully engineered to provide a tight and reliable seal so unfiltered air can’t make its way around the filter’s rubber frame. Clean air and lots of it; that’s what’s on the menu for your Ducati with the DU-8015.
The search by vehicle fits the following vehicles: 2016 DUCATI SCRAMBLER URBAN ENDURO 803 - All Models | ||||

Partridge won the Toyota/NAPA Auto Parts 150, his third win of the season, and was second to Gilliland in the K&N Pro Series West standings. Partridge finished 13 points behind Gilliland, who was eighth in the K&N Pro Series race at Roseville. Partridge had 10 top-five and 13 top 10 finishes in 14 races in the K&N Pro Series West. “I’m absolutely ecstatic,” Partridge said. “I know we didn’t win the championship, but we ended up on top in the last race.”
“It was tough with the rain, sliding around,” Partridge said. “I was the one out front, so I was the one finding all the water first. It was a lot of run though. Me and Todd had a couple of real good battles, got into each other a couple of times.” Partridge led the first 151 laps of the race. A caution on lap 147, the seventh of the race, set up a green-white-checkered finish. Eggleston, who took the lead briefly on lap 152 after the final restart, battled Partridge to the checkered flag.
Eggleston held on for second place. Bill McAnally Racing teammate Julia Landauer was third. Noah Gragson was fourth and Nicole Behar was fifth. Even though Partridge fell short of winning the K&N Pro Series West championship, he wanted to end the season on a high note. He hinted that this might be the last season for his Sunrise Ford Racing team in the K&N Pro Series West.
Gilliland not only won the K&N Pro Series West championship, he is also the Sunoco Rookie of the Year. We had an amazing season. To have six wins out of 14 races in my rookie season is amazing, better than anything we ever expected. Definitely couldn’t be happier with the night. | |||||
