Turbo Heat Management for LB7 6.6L GMC Sierra HD
The Funk Motorsport LB7 6.6L GMC Sierra HD Turbo Blanket is engineered for owners seeking advanced heat control and protection for their turbo diesel platform. Specifically designed for the LB7 6.6L turbo diesel engine, this turbo blanket addresses the unique demands of heavy-duty GMC Sierra HD applications—whether towing, off-roading, or running performance modifications.
How the Funk Motorsport Turbo Blanket Works
Turbochargers generate significant heat, which can radiate into the engine bay and threaten the reliability of nearby components. This turbo blanket acts as a high-performance thermal barrier, helping to contain heat within the turbo’s turbine housing. By minimising heat soak, it supports lower under-bonnet temperatures, protects wiring and hoses, and helps maintain cooler intake air for more consistent performance.
When to Choose This Turbo Blanket
This product is ideal for:
- GMC Sierra HD owners with the LB7 6.6L turbo diesel engine
- Drivers who tow, haul, or operate in demanding environments
- Enthusiasts upgrading boost or running performance modifications
- Anyone seeking to protect engine bay components from excessive heat
- Owners who value straightforward turbo maintenance and serviceability
