Default Hurricane air intake instructions? Help!

I have a WCC hurricane air intake on my 2006 LS2.
I am looking to get it off to clean the filter.
I have removed the coupler from the manifold.
Tought it would just pull right out. But I seems to be stuck in there.

I cant see any screws from the top but have not tried jacking and looking at the bottom yet.

Thought I ask the forum for help before I break something.

Appreciate any advice.

Chris

Look to the left and the right side of the hurricane intake, there are tabs inserted into the radiator shroud. Just take those out and the intake should slide off.

I put it up on the jack. Looked under the bumper. Sure enough. Three small screws from the bottom secure it to the GM plastic piece that is down there. Once those are out, it pretty easy.
