I trimmed the air filter mounting flanges and drilled them to the snorkel. The 3/8″ clearance turned out to be perfect if you tuck the closest bend on the flanges up against the top edge of the snorkel. This provides just enough room for the flanges to sit below the inlet ramp and lay flat. The inlet ramp will need a bunch of modification before this can be fitted. I hadn’t read through the snorkel instructions before fitting the left side conical gusset. It turns out that this isn’t supposed to be used when installing the snorkel. I’m going to leave it in place though since the alternate design won’t seal tightly against the cowl inlet.
Here’s how the air filter will sit in the top of the snorkel. I’ll need to cut most of the inlet ramp away to allow air into the filter.
