I see a lot of people panicked about hydrolocking their motor which would suck, but the fact is , it would take so much rain to cause it, you would have wished you had taken the boat instead of the Z

Do you plan to crash your car? If not, then you dont need car insurance.

Do you plan to get sick and need surgery? If not, then you dont need health insurance.

Do you plan to get a girl pregnant? If not, then you dont need a condom.

I hope I made my point clear. Sh*t happens.


To answer the OP's question, you need to figure out the diameter of the intake and get the appropriate bypass size. Then you would need to cut the pipe in half at the highest point and place the valve in between.
