Hey guys....dont overexaggerate this thread here.....
We want to prevent a hydrolock if the first wave swap over the hood.....
We dont talk to build a Submergable Ex.......with the ability to dive under the Nortpole to Neu Schwabenland in the InnerEarth...
Having a Snorkel is good and looks cool (Just my own opinion)
Relocate the Blackbox is good, too
Driving a Diesel is the best but for us other guys we should protect our COPs a bit by using an rubber oring and a lot heavy grease around.....
To extend the vents of both Diffs seems a very good idea, that I had overlooked
To eleminate the shroud and swap to electrical fans is fine anyway.....
and to please the German in me for doing a job right is to lift/extend the exhaust tip cant be wrong in a case that you need to stop your engine while your rocksliders are already under water......though you have a 8"lift and roll on 44Boggers......
All together should help to survive while driving in wet weather conditions and bashing through puddles....

Not sure, please give us your estimates Skip... Keep in mind it may go a little longer if it's a 6.0 since it would probably be covered in oil

Old thread I know but another reason we run snorkels down under is so when you are travelling in a convoy there is cleaner air up higher than down lower were stock intakes. Especially important when there is no wind and it is dry an kicks up in a heart beat and hit a bulldust hole.
