PostSubject: Rhino snorkel question   Rhino snorkel question EmptyFri Feb 01, 2008 11:51 am

afternoon everybody... quick rhino snorkel question

just now startign to mod my 07 660...

cdi, sheave, intake, alba exhaust, spacers, 4 points... figures all that would get me started and hopefully bumping my RZR friend in the ass on the trail.

BUT... hows about snorkeling???

Seems pretty easy with pvc, rubber connectors and maybe some flex pvc... plus a load cheaper than the kits - but are the kits worth it -a nd who has the best one?

My RZR buddy did it to his and it seemed easy - am I missing something specific to the Rhino.

exactly what I was thinking....

looks like just 3 holes in the back of the air box to allow 3 90degree elbows - then up from there???

was everything easy to access?

I went with the diesel stacks because some of the places we ride are very deep and I don't want to be the reason we have to stop. I also wanted the the intake up high in the clean air.

Clutch,
Nice work man!!!!!!! Did you need to do any jetting???? I know I've read where some snorkel set-ups effect carb settings.

I've been meaning to ask Wheelin the same thing about his snorkel. That has got to restrict airflow. Wonder why Wheelin doesn't turn his facing forward and increase the opening to say 3"x10". It would be like Ram Air then?

ahhhh, are you running a stock carb?

should I hold off on it - if so - why snorkel the rest - I would think that would be the most important one???

isnt the most important one?

are you running a stock carb that was hard to jet right?

last neby mechanic question then, bed...

just read this somehwere.... true???

Just a hint for those of you that snorkel your rhino, make sure you run the carb vent lines up also. I thought I had mine done, but the bog proved otherwise. The one on the drivers side tess and goes down. I ran the top up, but not the bottom one. Yep, it filled with mud and killed me about 10 feet from the end.
