Well, there are a few CPI CAI how-to's out there, figured I'd throw my hat in to the ring..
NOTE: I'm still not done with the heat shield but I will explain how it's done.
Parts Needed:
24" of 3" id exaust pipe ($15.00)
3" id Coupler
K&N RF-1016 Cone filter (10 degree flange @ 3-1/2" ID ($40.00)
Bracket
Oil Breather Filter (APC, EDLEBROCK,SPECTRE, etc...)
Orginal mating boot with the IAT Sensor
Optional Primer, Paint, Enamel Clear, etc..

The pipe you see was bought and bent at meinikie for $15.00 It's bent @ 35 degree angles
I primed, painted, and clear coated the pipe just to make it nice...
Heatshield:
For the heat shield, I simply took a heavy piece of card-board and cut it to shape. After getting the edges straight, I covered in about a 1/4" worth of rubber undercoating spray.
Primered:

First pull all of your existing air intake plastic off of the truck. Disconnect the IAT Sensor.
Remove front boot with the IAT sensor and set aside. Store or throw out rest of your system.
Pull the hose running from your driver's side pcv hole and push the oil breather filter into it
The reason for the coupler is that the pipe is 3" and the filter is 3-1/2 so I needed something to fill some of the space. The coupler did this well. Simply slide the couple onto the filter side of the pipe, slide the filter over this and tighten the included clamp. Connect the boot to the other end.
You will notice in the following pics that I notched the top of the fan shroud because it sits nicer that way. Also you will notice from the above parts pics that there is a stud mounted on the end of the filter... This makes a good bracket mounting point. You can't see the bracket I made, but it holds in place nicely,
Here is the final install.
