Mine has a cowl intake (not a dorky schnorkel, mine's hidden) and a sealed coil rail seated directly on the plugs. Mine would probably start right up and drive out of that after the ice melted, depending on how water resistant my "waterproof" alternator really is. Even the axle vents are above that water line.

In fact, even the stock intake is probably above that water line. Water would get into the airbox, but the intake is on top of it pointing straight down so that water can't really run into it until the filter itself is submerged.
