    silicone flexi hose

    I have given this stuff ago but im not completely happy with it, it is too difficult to seal the ends because of the wire spiral inside it. I used 2 hose clamps each end with silicone sealant and one end slightly leaks with my hand over the top of the snorkel. It will do for now i guess...

    How easy is it to convert a RHD to LHD?

    its only to clear the transmission.... unless you would like to move that you need to keep it as is there is a blank for the handbrake the other side

    How much fuel (not mpg)

    just for comparison I work with diesel engines around 16l v12 and 1000+ bhp and they use between 120-200 lph under load so some of these figures must be well out
