I've read that it can smooth out idle and help get oil to, I think it was #8 injector 
As far as being necessary, I don't really know, but I wanted to do a gauge so I thought I'd do it like this and have both. Besides, how much of the stuff we do to these trucks is really "necessary" LOL!!

I know the SS HPX that Clay sells is a hard line, but can this be made with 5000 psi stainless steel braided hydraulic hose? I have some #5 o-ring fittings that I got to do a HPO gauge, but I was thinking about doing a crossover and tee the gauge in the middle of it. Will this work?

Mine is a flex line I got from dieselsite. I've heard of the hpop lines being made, I don't know why you couldn't make the crossover, as long as its made for high enough pressures. I don't think I'd tee into it though, I think I'd just use one of the other plugs in the head for the gauge. JMO though. Put your plugs and orings in the glovebox, just in case.
Thanks guys.

When I bought the Adrenaline, Bob at dieselsite told me to get rid of the HPX hose, its not needed because of the design of the pump.
When I bought the T500 Joey told me the same thing, built into the design of the pump each rail get equal pressure ensureing #8 cylinder gets its fair share of oil.
