Short Description: Snorkel #3 - Side cuts for better filter fit
|
I spent a quick minute making the snorkel cut on one side of where it attaches to the inlet ramp. Based on prior experience, how the snorkel is formed pinches the air filter, so Bob graciously provided the Delrin plug that he used to alleviate the poor filter fit. I cut out the radiused curves on two sides, clamped the plug to the snorkel, filled in the freshly cut curves with flox (epoxy resin and milled cotton fibers), and then covered the flox with a layer of carbon fiber cloth. Since I have the carbon fiber, I might as well use it.
