I'm building a hommade cherokee snorkel. I know its kinda pointless and un called for but I think they look cool and I'm tired of cleaning out carbs and throttle bodys from deep mudholes. My questions are is this gonna change my air/fuel mix, is it gonne make my rig run hotter? Is it gonna hurt my power or idle ect... any body done one on a straight 6 cherokee?.

that one is a 90 with the straight 6. i did away with my stock air box completely. there is a filter under that cover, with a hose running to a coupler to connect it directly to the stock intake hose to the top of the throttle body. i figured since i was running the aux. filter there was no need to keep the stock box at all.beat up rusted out k5

Ya that. Seems like a bad spot a lot of the mud holes iv gone in mudd/water comes over the hood to the windshield when I first go into the hole or water. I think I'm gonna do a elbo on the end facing inwards towards the roof so when I'm spinnin tires it won't get the mudd shot into it lol...

the only time i ever had issue is splashing through water at a high rate of speed, but it never let any water through the filter.
i put it there as i did drown it out with the stock location at the bad lands since when entering a hole the front would dip farther down at the angle you would come it, but up on the cowl i never had an issue.beat up rusted out k5
