    Revisiting the video, this is very cool. I may do this on my OEM+ build.

      I was afraid of tearing the plastic snorkel on the branches. This is very sturdy and I like the way it looks.

    Looks good. Your comment on bleepinjeep brought me to this video. Where'd you get the mushroom cap? Did you have to take it up so high? I would like mine to be much tighter to the hood. Also, what size pipe did you use for the inlet piping?

    • @V8AmericanMuscleCar
      @V8AmericanMuscleCar  8 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you! You can buy a mushroom cap at any tractor parts store. The inner tube for air is 50 mm, and the outer tube is 70 mm for aesthetics and drainage if some water gets in. About the height, I was looking at how it would look better if the mushroom was higher or lower and if I submerge the hood, I would like to be sure. I decided on this height for both functionality and appearance. It looks really good when you stand next to the Jeep.

      Right on. I appreciate the input. I prefer a lower profile appearance wise. For performance, I occasionally cross a water hole that comes over the front of the hood dropping in, but then barely comes over the tire when the jeep levels out. I'm not messing with water deeper than the hood, I'll back out of that. @@V8AmericanMuscleCar

      @@CJLane-62 I didn't. 😁 I don't mean to go too deep if I don't have to. It is important to me that water does not draw into the filter if I briefly go deeper.

      Kao vozač i ne znaš da je tu osim ako baš pogledaš. A ako moja žena kaže da ne smeta na suvozačkom, onda vjeruj mi, ne smeta. 😉
