I have a 6.9. I have had a foot of water inside the cab, and I am up on 38's. Under the seat wouldn't do me any good. I had at the same time water over the front corner of my hood. That was the day I pulled two trucks out at the same time. I sure was proud that day. (And a little scared when the front corner of my hood disappeared!
)

That's got to make a hell of an intake noise if you run it inside the cab.......

I have driven the truck without the air cleaner around the block, and it's even LOUD from just under the hood. It sounds cool.

You don't think we wheel our trucks?
3 out of my 4 are 4wd, and I don't care much for street tires (mud slicks!).

I wish. It's an IDI so no turbo. It sounds more like a spread bore holley with the secondaries wide open all the time!

It's all good. I love my diesel, and especially the simplicity of it. It'll pull anything I ask it to and then some.

don't put it in your cab.i did that and it's real noisy,and you get gas smell in the cab.i'm taking mine out.i agree with uncle stosh with all the other mods to.the factory air cleaner does a great job keeping water from splashing into the carb.plus your fuel economy will suffer ,imagine your self running down the street breathing through a diving snorkle and see how hard it would be.your truck will run rich .
