Yes...they are very similar to the factory HPO lines. Plenty of people have had t deal with those popping too, but the problem I kept having was not the line itself, but the crimp connection holding the ends on the hoses. If you don't get those crimps right the integrity of the line is compromised.

The vast majority has no problems with the flexible lines.....I'm just unlucky that way.

I installed my HPX today and I love how the engine sounds (like its running smother) problem is when I'm idiling it has a vibration. Is this something that will work it's way out or just the way it is??

You introduced some air into the high-pressure oil rail when you had it apart. Normal.

It takes just a little bit to work that air out.

Give it 50 miles or so, it should clear up.

Yes. you reconnect it to the number 4 port. By the way I should have waited to post, everything worked fine this morning. Just got a little jumpy. This is a must have "mod" right next to the downpipe. I'm thinking intercooler next.
