Has anyone adapted this style of snorkel? I could build one but have a good line on a cheap one...this is an oem style from a 70.

No.

Assuming you have enough engine compartment space, you could use a PS snorkel. But, you’ll have a LARGE hose running around, under your hood.
I bought this ChiCom DS version in Oct 2015 and while the shame has long worn off, I haven’t found a thing wrong with it.

I’ve forded little water in NV... but, the cooler air, pulled in via the raise ramjet has help 44 a lot... it’s not nearly as much dust.
And, helpful tip... I haven’t changed the air filter in about 2.5 years... just run knee-high stocking inside the tube and clean/change it out frequently. Much cheaper than an air filter and flat black is SEXY!!
You can get RHS Versions from Brazil to suit the 40.
I have been trying to buy one for months but haven't managed to crack it yet. If anyone else out there manages to I would be keen on 1
This is what I have been trying to buy - Snorkel toyota bandeirante (LADO DIREITO - PASSAGEIRO) CLA - VE18
Awl teq isn’t making them anymore...that woulda been slick.
I think there’s an old thread on here. I’ll try to dig it up
Few questions, did you have to drill holes in windshield frame? Apron is easy just paint two driver's side one to switch back. Could see the ramjet pressurizing the intake helping but always confused why everyone is always trying to cool the air coming into the engine. Up to a point heat is going help mix atomized petrol the air. Cast iron block double the oil of most V8s from the same time period. With a four core radiator never had a heating problem here in the desert. Can't help but think this played into why the petrol 40 series was so popular in the Middle East desert. The height of a snorkel is advantage on the dusty Southwest trails.
Haven't seen a picture 44 lately, really like what you have done with it. Maybe one of these days with get things clear out so I have room to work on my 79. Before I'm too old would like to do some exploring in the NV desert. Would love to have experience guide.
