Cante find a pic from when the 3566r was still fitted but this pic should give you an idea on the amount of real estate in the area with those mods.

Can't remember off the top of my head how the 3inch rubber pipe use to look.Or just run a 4inch 90 degree doser straight up to a mushroom pod.. aha Edited 07/11/13 08:21 AM by turboboink
