the height between the Super-Scoop and the air
inlet hood should be as great as possible to prevent
any rain water not eliminated by the air inductor’s
water drain hole from climbing up into the air filter.
the curved outlet section of the Super-Scoop may
be trimmed back if less bend is required to make a
more streamlined hose routing. See Figure 7 .
for motorhomes that do not have the plastic air
inlet hood or any air inlet ducting connected to the
snorkel on the air filter base, we have air ducting
and clamps available for purchase. there must be at
least a 2 1 ⁄
4
” high clearance between the floor of the
coach and the top of the radiator bulkhead panel for
the flex hose to pass through. if this clearance does
not exist, it may be possible to mount the Super-
Scoop somewhere else, such as in a wheelwell, etc.
it should be located where it will receive the coolest
air available, and be shielded from foreign materials
such as flying stones and excess water spray.
once a location has been determined for the
Super-Scoop, mount it using one of the fol-
lowing methods.
the Super-Scoop may be mounted by several means.
if the grille consists of horizontal bars or a perforated
metal screen heavy enough to support the Scoop,
it may be secured using four 14” clear nylon cable
ties, provided, slipped through the ears on the Super-
Scoop and through the grille. See figure 8.
an alternate method is to mount the Super-Scoop
using the four perforated metal straps provided.
these can be bent as required and attached to the
Scoop ears with the 1 ⁄

hex bolts, 1 ⁄

–20 nylock
nuts and 3 ⁄

o.d. x 5 ⁄

i.d. flat washers provided. the
opposite end of the straps may be attached to any
convenient mounting points such as the gravel pan,
grille brackets, etc. as required, with four no. 10 x 3 ⁄
4
”
sheet metal screws provided. a combination of cable
ties and straps may also be used.
connect the bulkhead fitting to the Super-
Scoop using the 4-inch diameter flex hose
provided. cut the hose to the desired length using
a knife and diagonal cutting pliers. Secure with two
no. 64 hose clamps. if your coach does not have the
factory air inlet hood bracket, but you do have clear-
ance to run the 4-inch flex hose forward of the radia-
tor, join the air filter snorkel to the Super-Scoop with
the piece of 4-inch diameter flex duct provided. use
the plastic bulkhead fitting as a coupling between
the hoses, and trim off the curved section is desired.
attach the flex hoses with four no. 64 hose clamps.
you may want to tie the plastic bulkhead fitting down
to keep it in place. See Figure 4.

NOTE: Figure 9 shows how ramps may be construct-
ed for this purpose.
WarNiNG! observe safety precautions regarding
use of ramps and other lifting methods. See gen-
eral instruction practices and cautions contained in
Figure 9.
if the vehicle is supported by a hoist, the front wheels
may be removed for further accessibility.
