Hi all,

Anybody know if this will work on my car? I'm pretty much sold that an open element is not the way to go, so I'm going to buy another single-snorkel for my vehicle and fabricate one, or try this one, but for the price I don't want to get it wrong....

I know the L69 dual snorkel supposedly works, but any advice would be good. Any advice on the best way to get performance out of the air cleaner as well..
Thanks!

If you wanna do it the chap way. Just use a stock single snorkel. Then go to the junkyard and and find another one, then make a duel snorkel. You can get creative and look around at some different style snorkels from different cars.
