And no it's not going to be held on with rope

Wow, that is beyond orgasmic. That is beautiful design - follows the line of the screen and panel very nicely. When it progresses a bit further, I'd be keen if you wanted to do another. We'll talk.

Looks good Mick

The fun part starts when you approach your pride and joy with a 90mm hole saw!

Thanks Guys . I have progressed a little further today getting the holes cuts and all the elbows and stainless in place . Went and seen my local steel man and i have the snorkel booked in to have some stainless brackets welded to the pipe to make as strong as possible . So i'll be able to bolt it on properly as of tuesday arvo . Still yet to do the plumbing to the airbox . still working on that and which way to go about it ........

Not sure if it is the angle that you have taken the pic from, but i reckon it would look better if the ram was a little lower down i.e level with the roof line. It appears to be a bit higher atm.

otherwise looking the goods.

If you need some pics of how the safari joins up to the airbox shout out and I will get some of mine to you.

Hi Mick;

The Snorkle is looking really good mate

I mate , must be the angle from where i took the pic from cos it is pretty much level with the roof ..... maybe just higher but bugger all .

Thanks Khos .

You're not the first to make a snorkel for Elmo....
