Good thing you are not handler of the air impact on any NASCAR pit teams, it is taking you a month to put LED tail lights on. Quit working on Skeletor's lawnmower and let us know what's up with this snorkel, Cletus.
I know, right? They got 3 orders in a week. It should be like rental wedding tuxes. Groom's is free when best men rent theirs, but didn't happen. Love the avatar, that's who I'm named after, but I'm not nearly as cool as he is.
So the inlet area of the 5" Donaldson Air Ram scoop actually has less area than the ugly military mushroom cap. The Donaldson measures 5.5" x 6.5", and the mushroom measures 9" diameter with a 5" pipe up through it. Inlet velocity is probably pretty slow across both regardless, and in my...
I checked their page again, and it looks like upon installation, you need to allow some of the hard pipe to protrude up into the scoop. Mine does have the same slits at the bottom as yours. The water drains out these vertical lower slits. I was expecting a rear horizontal for some reason...
Seriously? I may have been sold a clone. Please post a pic of said drain. If you knew how to take a picture without washing out the subject with bright background sky, we'd be good. fat lady sings
My scoop came in today. It has the Donaldson insignia on it, but I don't see any slits in the rear to allow the rain water to expel, as their write up says. According to their one-pager on this, they say the rain will collect on the back wall of the scoop and run down and drain out. I thought...
Bum news. Filtermaxx said they can not get the 5" model. What a bummer, this led to nowhere, and I'm again sorry to get everybody excited. At least the M35A2 guys had a win and can get the 4" via this method. I ended up ordering the 5" from overseas, looks like about $95 total including...
Correct. Filtermaxx has not placed the order yet if you need to cancel, call them now. They are checking on the 5" one now, which is H008150, I'm hoping for the same result of being able to push it through and obtain them. Fingers crossed. Sorry again for any 5T'ers that trusted my info and...
Both of you are correct. I thought I remember the 5T being 4", but it is 5". Sorry, you got me. IGM now has my gonads on his fireplace mantle to squeeze whenever he wants. Darn it. Maybe I should not have made fun of his satan paint. He'll be teaching me how to use a ruler in like every...
5'? That's intense. Seriously, it has been a while since I measured it. If 5", then I may have ordered the wrong one. I just went off my poor memory, and thought it was 4", and somewhat confirmed it by seeing the Donaldson 4" was not available in the US. I'll go measure now in the rain to...
Should, it is plastic and seems to attach with a hose clamp, and the bottom seems to have vertical cuts in it which allows it to expand and fit over a 4" pipe. Stay tuned, I'll do mine and then we'll know.
Bad Info Posted, Please Delete
Incorrect info given. I greatly apologize to anybody that bought a part based upon my incorrect info. I SUCK !!! The intake pipe on M939's is about 5", not 4" as I thought I remembered. The 4" model is available for those who can use it. The 5" has to be...
