Southdown snorkel sizes...

jmattley · Jul 8, 2009

Anyone know what diameter stainless pipe southdown supply with their snorkel kits? Also, where would one acquire the flexi hose from?
I plan on using their lovely wing mouldings which are £15 on ebay and i have a mushroom top filter. Just need the bit in between now!

Cheers.

southdown sell that bit to

jmattley · Jul 8, 2009

Yeah they do, but you seen the price! I can just get some alu tube and use that, just thought it'd be easier if i knew the size to start with to work everything out like.

the southdown stainless pipe has a bend where it goes into the lovely wing moulding.

jmattley · Jul 8, 2009

But what's the diameter of the pipe?

battenberg · Jul 8, 2009

63mm outer

i also got that wing moulding but not clue how the wing moulding attaches to a flixi pipe inside the wing

I think the metal pipe is supposed to go right through the moulding, then your flexi pipe jubilee clips onto the steel pipe. Probably...

the metal pipe wont go all the way through

YES, it's just a bitch to get through... try some washing up liquid on it...

ok thanks, does anyone know how long the pipe is? can get it made up at work then, think it has a 15 degree bend in the pipe how far up?

thanks

Got a photo?

Would welding 2 pipes at a 23 degree angle work by any chance so it'll go through?

mark-d · Jul 13, 2009

think it might am gonna have a go 2day

mark-d · Jul 13, 2009

got that bit sorted just got to measure how high it needs to go up(unless someone knows?) just making something for the top as i haven been able to get one of them cheap, will take some pics and show ya

could be the one i was watching and forgot to bid on till was to late

jmattley · Jul 13, 2009

What type of pipe are you using Mark? I'm thinking of using some 2.5" exhaust.

mark-d · Jul 13, 2009

the 2.5 pipe i had was internal size so didnt fit im using 2 inch internal diameter stainless pipe with a short 45 bend in it. it goes through nice but is a little slack in the upper part but i am either gonna weld a lip on it or make a sleave its only like a mm or 2 so might get away with black mastic or something what ever looks best. doing it at work in between jobs

so is abit slow going but free (well to me)
