I have a bent up one.
You could probably make one easily if needed.
I can send you pictures/dimensions if you like. 56108

Making one would be a challenge in itself. But maybe I’ll have to look into it..... I had a Mantec on my old D1 that I sold to a buddy maybe I can take a look at his. Thanks.
The shape itself is simple, one very small bend and then cut/welded at the bottom.
Like @ukoffroad said, exhaust shop should be able to knock one out. (which is what I plan to do)
Next thing would be the hose, i have one, and I have been searching around trying to find a hose that would work as a replacement.

I'm also looking for any leads / info / measurements on one for an RRC...
Not so much a fan of the southdown- even powder coated.

Still scouring the internets looking for a D1 Mantec.......still can’t believe I can buy a knock off Chinese blow molded whatever but there isn’t one repro version of a Camel Trophy RAI.
If I could find one for my truck I’d look into reproducing another....cant complain about it if I’m not gonna try myself. I have access to some fabrication facilities and knowledge to consult.
If anyone has a lead on a Mantec raised air intake for a Discovery I’m always looking.

I’ve seen the Southdown ones. I want to like them but I just can’t. I like that they are stainless but I can’t get on board with the look.
FWIW, Southdown stopped production but Lucky8 still has some. The one I just got for my RRC is black, not stainless (granted the one I had on my previous D1 was stainless)
