I would also look into getting a better air filter snorkel.
But Paul I know what ever you do it will be a good looking VOLVO

Thanks much Chris you have hit on many of the items in plan of doing or changing. i have new pipe for the stacks to make them longer and do turn outs I think I have made whips for the mirrors. I have 8 spot lights coming for the truck couple for the bull guard and might do some on the roof and I was planing on doing 2 on the back of the cab I have got to keep the droam deck as my son built it I am very partial to it I would like to do some air cleaners and snorkels but would it be better if I got rid of the upper air dam and put one next to each stack??

I also plan on losing the side skirts and going with rectangle tanks on it..

let me know what you think on the snorkels.
