Anyhow I'm thinking of a beefier version

Any ideas?

Also I have had quotes ranging from Barbayouknows for $520 all the way to West Coast Rover at $160 - am I missing something? Surely the rip-off margin isn't THAT huge?

Keys were 30% cheaper but not 300% cheaper - makes me wonder...

Thanks in advance

Rip it off and put an early RRC cylinder type air cleaner on. This is what I did to the last one that came through here:



They are VN Commodore connecting hoses, quite robust.

Or go the whole hog and fit LPG injection...

Call a donaldson dealer and tell them what you are after and see what they have to offer. Donaldson make at least 40% of OEM filter and filter box assemblies anyway.

The RRC would have to make the element cheaper as well. I was quoted anywhere from $187- to $267- for a Ryco.

I like the Rangie classic idea but it might make fitting a snorkel that bit harder. I used beeutey's commodore hose idea and they are great. Very strong. Backfire should not be occurring but its a sure way of knowing earlier than you ever would with petrol that your spark is not up to scratch. For eg a lead or coil pack. What about getting the bottom made out of alloy from q fabrication shop. The lids never crack. Cheers
