High and mighty? Please believe me, I have been very reserved with my comments.
Regarding the use of the F word. It is probably the most over used word in the english language, in some shops, and perhaps in your's there are few sentences that are utterred without its inclusion. Perhaps you have not noted that on THIS site, members are respectful enough that when they do use foul language they sensor it. Even the word $hit is almost never found spelled out here.
Personally I put a lot of time into taking pictures of each step, with an explanation of how to build the snorkel, others have posted information on how to water tight the engine so one can go submarineing. So, am I so out of line to politely request that the F word be removed from what is essentially an instructional piece?
Now that rednek has responded with a refusal to edit his post, I am going to ask a moderator to clean the thread. That's all.
Have a nice day.

I think it might be a good idea to add a drain for the air cleaner box, should some water get in there.
I picked this up yesterday, and think it will work out well.
I'm told that it is a pipe thread. A regular nut may not fit. IF that is the case, then I might cut the fitting on the right back so that it will function as a nut, and then silicone it to the bottom of the air box on the side, below the hoses. I'll put a label above it to remind me which way it needs to be turned to open and close it.

i agree wiuth muddrider. it just seems like another thing to whine about. idk i always thought i was the youngest one here. but w/e i guess ill change it.
broncojoe idk if you didnt see my offer to make you a cover for your snorkel or if you just ignored it but id say thats kinda rude not even to acknowledge it... oh well.
unless ya have turndowns guys i dont think exhaust snorkels are a big deal at all cuz i think a 302 oe 351 has enough push to keep the mud and water and ____ out of the exhaust... even if a little does get in i doubt it will shut ya down cuz its gotta go far up to the engine..and thru a lot of ____...

Rednek said... check out some pics like google images look for snorkel.. people have a deal like its a plastic filter with a little cowl over it its good for rain.....
i could even make ya one..... 3 in pipe... i could weld up a little cowl that turns forward with a metal grating type deal (like on a grill) and a steel cowl over it... pm me if ya want me to?
Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. I thought that your offer was tremendously generous, and I didn't know how to reply. You did say PM you. I hadn't taken the time to search the net for various configurations that would work, or to see what you had seen, and had in mind.
I thought that if you did do it and it came out nicely, and we posted it, perhaps you could have yourself a little side business making snorkel caps for broncos.
