SGT. Batguano I started a thread back on Vmag but didn't get much info.

Mr. Crowley, First off thanks for your reply, I plan on buying an "extra" fender to do this with. The Tonbo House one would be fine if I was just to be racing it, but I'm going for the look too. I plan on coming out of the fender right above the 3.5L logo, this would just look clean, I think. And itr also looks flat enough to put a tube through. I think I am going to have to face a scoop forward in order to kind of force air in there, since I am afraid that this might mess with the S/C'ed engine. I don't really "splash" anyway, I just cruise my way through as not to flood it. I'd like to be able to turn it around just in case I find a place to splash some water or go cruising across the silt flats, but for the most part I go through deep water instead of puddles.

If I was to have the snorkle face foreward is there anyway to prevent rain/splash from going in there? Does that require another air filter? Would that hinder the air flow too much for a S/Ced engine? thats my main question.
