Here we go pics of the snorkel fitted, I've missed some out, sry.
The snorkel is off a 300tdi landrover discovery.
my original design changed several times through the week as things didn't work how I wanted them to. Evil or Very Mad

Everything that could be sealed with sealant was also.

The filter housing was removed and the brackets onit cut off and moved round then welded back on so to allow the intake hole to point to the wing.

The green hose it attached to a ridged elbow that came with the snorkel.

The expansion tank was moved to the bulkhead as they was no room and also the little vacuum things Laughing

where move to the diesel filter bracket.

Gearing is bad in high box now, not so bad in low but as it's never going back on the road I can live with it.. (for now Laughing

)

they lifted the car 2inch and it's also got a 1" suspension lift.
