Default need some advice

So I hydrolocked my 07 rubi driving down the road... through a puddle literally a puddle. Put a hole in the block cracked the trans and everything... not happy. Insurance screwed me after a month investigation they didn't cover it. Had I sunk it in a pond hey would have. So I have ordered another 3.8 and trans and will be doing everything myself. I was wondering if anyone has some advice on some upgrades I should do while under the hood is empty. Also what's the best snorkel? Lol gonna need that for *puddles*

Sorry to hear that. I did that with my old tj only i was trying to be a hero and make it through a mud hole. Im getting a volant snorkel a little more expensive but they look better in my opinion and seem to be better quality
