Maybe you can find (craigslist) a turtle owner close to you with same size snapper that you could introduce her to through glass to see what's the both of their reaction. If they seem cool with each other you might introduce them by touch in a neutral and very controlled setting, your holding her and brushing her claw on her friends shell. I think you'll know if either of them is going to try to snap at the other. Then you might set them down a ways apart and let them go where they want...

Incidently my snappers always got along better on land than in water. In the water they were thinking food and getting theirs. The only time one ever snapped at the other was when they were in the same bowl of water. I know they say snappers are more aggressive on land, but I think that's more so when they're interacting with people, on account of how tall people are and how many of their tiny buddies they saw ate by crows and what not.

If they seem cool with each other you should let them interact in a setting that's not familiar to either of them so neither is feeling like their territory is being invaded.

Ok man, I trust you on all that. Maybe you should post some video of you stroking her chin. I think most animal lovers would be greater endeared of snappers to see they have emotions. I know some turtle owners who had never seen their turtle smile, felt turtles did not have the capacity for emotion...
I'm glad to hear you're turtles attached to you that's how it should be.
