Although many posts did not recommend PVC, I couldn't help but wonder what it would look like. using a material that doesn't rust or corrode seemed like a plus to me, only downfall I suppose is the visible seams in the pipe to fitting connections.
A small hole has been drilled in the bottom of the inside portion of the pvc pipe, also a small hole drilled in the bottom of the air filter housing for water drainage.
In my experience in a Chevy of this type, the fan usually soaks the motor and air cleaner, This is what I am trying to prevent, momentary deep water crossings are all this truck should see, and its not worth loosing the motor that way.
Total cost of snorkel: less than $100 with paint.

I really enjoy this site,
thanks
