Want a snorkle or two but I am located in the US was created by Freighttrain
Anyone down under willing to deal with someone in the US?I am looking for a snorkle for my GMC General.Only has one air cleaner but I am tempted to install a dummy on the left hand side.One of those accesssories you never see on this side of the 3rd rock and think it would look pretty good even if only one functions.

grab sum chrome pipe of desired length n diameter
slit the end in a few places so it clamp down hard on A/C inlet
then fit the air ram on top

That GMC you've got has got the same sort of air filter they used on the old R model Mack, and Superliner with the V8 in here. They are easy to make the riser pipes for, see if someone can post a pic up of one. All you need is the correct diameter pipe, usually in aluminium, and then they had 3 stays made out of 10mm round bar that went back to the bolts that hold the air cleaner lid on.

Thank guys.I was thinking about exhaust but wondered if it would be too heavy up there whipping around.But if you guys use it down under then I doubt it is too heavy.From some of the pictures I have seen,a lot of your good roads outside of towns are actually like some of our back wood dirt roads here.Your trucks take a lot more of a beating.I also thought about looking for cabover intake snorkels but on this side of the world a cabover is a hard thing to find and even harder to find parts for.

I love that first one especially the placement of the "Whoppy light" as a buddy of mine calls them.

I'll contact Donaldson and see if they can help me before I go cutting up good stacks.Don't know about why we don't have them here other than most truckers want shinny smooth stuff.They try to make their rig pretty.If I want pretty,I will find me a redhead with Double Ds.I want my truck to look mean and ready to work.
