Home made snorkel

Now thats a home made snorkel.

This pic was in a mag and tempts me to do the same. When I get my new guards this is what will be going on them. I will have to try and find a buyer for my airflow then.

 

And yes, I'll do the twin too.

Oh, the irony. :o

 

Those are hot though.

[Precise1]

LMAO !! Agreed, that is a good way to do it... I'll wait to see your finished product though. Looking forward to having a garage !

curious... any reason to have the intake facing forward -vs- backwards? I would think that any highway driving in the rain would allow water to your intake. Is the pathy air-starved that it needs to be 'force fed' air when running through a snorkel?

why two???

[Duffman]

why two???

just seems like more ways for water to make its way to the engine.

 

That truck is the bomb diggity btw

why two???

Yeah, unless you are running twin turbos and have an inlet on both sides what's the point

I bet that Patrol had a V8 in it that needed two snorkels. Heh. That's a real nice setup...now, if we all only knew how to weld and bend large-diameter stainless tubing...

No kidding!!!

 

You could use the second intake to only allow air under the hood to help cool it down??! Sry... just talking out my waste disposal hole!?

I can't see how rain could get into the intake. The top hat seperates any water.

The only time you should consider facing the top hat(s) to the rear would be in a convoy of 4wds on a very dusty track. And even then you're not going to sto[p the bulk of sh!t getting in. I suppose thats the reason for precleaners.

 

All cars are air starved.

Why not. The more air you can force in the better the engine likes it.
