Most important that you avoid to many bends or changes in diameter if you intend to use it all the time.

Simon,

Check out the linky below for my patented V8 B&Q snorkel... ok.. it was a disco... but hey... might work for you!

On my V8 I blanked off the front air entry to the airbox, then made a flange and fixed it to the side, avoiding a tight U bend, then onwards via a piece of hose to B&Q pipe, easily replaced if broken. Been on a while now and taken some knocks, still looks good.
