    Gu snorkel on gq

    Hey all,

    I've got a tb42 carby gq. I spotted a Gu snorkel on a gq the other day and thought it looked mint. Also being a cheaper option as people seem to sell thier old ones on eBay I thought I'd go down that path. What do I need other than the snorkel and where is a good fitting place within the south east suburbs? Live in Pakenham, work in Frankston.

    Cheers fellas!

    Start beggin members.. Lol

    Yea templates come with new units. So buying second hand unit makes it harder.
    Your best bet would be to try and find some1 buying a new one to photo copy it.

    You'll find it very hard for any shop to touch it without a template. don't waste your money, contour to the body will be different, IMO just not worth all the B/S you're about to go through.
    Find a snorkel for your model with the correct template no problems with fitting it all happy. TOO many horror stories about cheap snorkels

    I'm pretty sure safari have just bought out a mk2 for the Q's. It enters up near the window and behind the quarter to the air box, like the GU's.
