cant find snorkel

[caseyj]

every one seems to say the same, go to scorpian racing, so i rang them and they dont do one for a 2.4 surf, any ideas anyone??

The Safari part you want is SS106HF. It's really for a 3 litre but fits a 2.4 with no problems at all.

This is the offical Safari Snorkel Site and as gamedawn has indicated the correct model

Yes.
Its a bit unnerving putting 4 10mm holes and a 60mm hole in your wing though

Another one of those questions:

Guys,

Since the end of the snorkel is open to the elements, what happens when it rains heavy and you're driving into the rain? Doesn't the snorkel actually bring water into the system?

The answer must be no, but how does it deal this?

Just curious.

p.s. What should I expect to pay for a descent snorkel?

i been quted roughhly 220 from scorpain racing, the rain thing is good question, would like to know that myself

What if you turn the top air intake around to face backwards,
it may restrict the air flow but at least you should not get
the rain in??
On a 2.4 I'm thinking that you may have to loose the electric
arial as it is in the way??

its moulded around the aerial on them - looks really neat on Jons motor.

got this from the sarfari snorkel web site

Will rain go down the inside of a Safari snorkel ram?

Even in a tropical rain storm, only a tiny volume of the impact moisture will enter the snorkel. The incoming rain droplets are broken up as they impact on the special, Safari designed grill cross ribs. The high speed of the air stream, as it turns the 90o corner in order to enter the Safari snorkel, causes the heavier rain droplets to move to the outside surfaces. Here the rain is collected in the expanded lower body of the Safari air ram ( outside the Safari snorkel body) and allowed to drain out, via the slots provided.
