New Snorkel

I’ve been trying to figure out how to put a decent looking snorkel on my discovery. I love the look of the mantec, and the way it reuses the stock air box

and the way it enters into the body,  and runs along the inside of the fender

but the connection idea I am not a fan. 

It takes the space where the 2nd battery is going.    

Then I found an aussie snorkel,  a SAFARI SNORKEL DISCOVERY 1 300TDi LHS,  and that plate that comes out the side of the stock airbox solved my issue.

 

  

So I went and visited a friend of mine to get some brackets cut out, and got the snorkel welded together. I’m calling it the weston snorkel.

Goodbye Lil’ Petunia

It’s been a super busy couple of months, and finally Sunday I got to do something fun, but sad.

Our old racecar died, and our new karts are starting to live.

Here’s the last picture I’ll have of her.
