I made all these same suggestions, most users opted for the 'looks', but
as soon as I find a comparable Dakota in the junkyard, my creativity will
abound !!
My goal is to keep the snorkel, however, as I'm not sure if discombobulating
the pre-heat tube will cause any undesired effects. (How do you like them
technical terms !). :)
<sigh> I remember buying chrome air cleaner housings for around $10 to
$15 not too long ago. If the lid is chrome or the 'cutting' of the
air cleaner housing is done somewhat professionally, I can't see it
detracting from the appearence under the hood. I mean come on guys,
these are Dakotas, not Max Wedges or Hemis... (those tricking their
trucks out can ignore this statement). 8^)
