do what a mate did spend 5g on a eng rebuild and killed it in the first month
cause a $500 snorkel was not needed to do a river crossing

i know were id spend the money n whats cheaper
other alternative is stainless steel pipe ,do a search in the tech section on stainless snorkels it was not that long ago on there

Less than $100 worth of PVC pipe and silicon will also work...
