Right from the start, Safari took the decision to develop a snorkel system that exceeded the huge mass air flow requirements of the powerful 3.9L V8 gasoline and the gutsy 2.5L Turbo Diesel engines - and with thorough engineering and exhaustive testing of the SS350-HF snorkel system, those lofty design targets were achieved.

Close attention to the internal cross sectional profile and area, air velocity and flow path through each and every point along the entire length of the snorkel system ensures that the greatest air flow is achieved. The result is maximum engine performance and the best possible fuel economy. This of course also applies to components that are not visible.

For example in order to achieve the optimum air flow within the engine bay area of the Discovery, a special duct was engineered to closely couple the inner-guard air transfer hose to the standard air intake assembly. This complex duct takes advantage of the tight spaces that would preclude the use of traditional hoses - but with the advantage that the internal cross sectional profile of this special duct can be altered whilst maintaining the desired cross sectional area at each and every point along its length.

The result is not only the maximum engine performance and the best possible fuel economy, but also the best structural integrity for a lifetime of hassle-free motoring over and through the world's toughest terrain. A bonus is that the use of this special duct delivers the maximum convenience for those who wish to install additional under-hood accessories.

Huge air flow is but one aspect of the ultimate in snorkel design. The Safari air ram is designed to perform two very important roles. The most obvious is to funnel cool clean air into the snorkel body - but just as importantly, the Safari air ram acts as a highly efficient water separator to remove rain water from the incoming air stream - thus ensuring safe engine operation through even the most torrential tropical storms.

In addition, the detachable Safari air ram can be rotated to any position. This means great peace of mind for those who plan to travel in cold or high altitude conditions where heavy snow falls are anticipated. By rotating the air ram to face away from the prevailing wind/direction of motion, the air ram delivers additional protection from the choking effects of snow build-up inside the air intake.

The Safari Snorkel body, air ram and inner duct are manufactured to the highest standards in durable, UV stable, cross linked polyethylene material. In addition, the substantial material wall thickness delivers huge physical strength to ensure that the snorkel breezes through the toughest off-road conditions on the planet.

The Safari Snorkel system is supplied as a complete and comprehensive system that includes every nut, bolt and bracket required for installation - right from robust zero-corrosion stainless steel studs, self-locking nyloc nuts and large diameter anodized body washers through to the tough plastic A-pillar inserts.

Breathe Easy - The genuine Safari Snorkel is positively sealed and delivers a continuous and cooler supply of air for the best engine protection on the planet.
