Root Flashing a new kernal

Last night I was trying to change from a Chevy kernal to one of P3's kernals. I downloaded the kernal from the website to my computer, plugged my phone in via usb and copied the zip folder from my computer to the root of my sd card. unplugged the phone and rebooted into recovery. When I went to install from sd card and choose zip the kernal was not there. Am I missing a step, I swore this is what I did last time. Thank you for any help
