Custom built snorkel
I was wondering if any of you BigSix owners that go 'wheeling have ever made a custom snorkel for your rigs. I was going to attempt to do this but the speed density dual intake is really unnerving. I'd like to find some kind of a coupler that will take the dual intake into a single so that I can make the rest out of PVC or something to that extent.
Guys got any clues?

The 4.9L & 5.0L (and perhaps the 5.8L) F-150 engines with MAF use a 1 into 2 air induction tube set-up. Their throttle bodies are like yours, but the MAF they use requires a single tube. Probably would work perfect for you.

sweet! I just wanna get that snorkel look...i know the I6 has it's distributor very low on the motor so it's prone to getting water logged. My best solution to that is to smear it with Marine Grease...works pretty good too!
