Oil Crossover
I read an article somewhere about running a hose from one side of the engine to the other. Said it would help quiet it down. Does anyone know about this and have pictures of it ?

The only thing I really noticed was the motor did quieten down alot when I installed mine. Thats about it. A guy at work has the same year and truck as mine,and you can tell a difference in sound from the engine.

All I can say is that the price is right and it is made with excellent quality materials... Not a new idea, just improving whats out there and not taking short cuts.

Yep -- MEEE TOOOO... Quieted the engine and made it smoother at idle. It no longer jumps around in the engine bay. Here's what mine looks like (Just in front of the turbo & pedestal):

How did I know this was coming? Don't forget about us early bird boys, the early turbo and pedistal causes some clearance issues.
