What does this consist of? There is hydraulic hose's of all sizes and fittings where I work. I'm sure I could make it. How long of a hose, what size hose, size of fittings...etc?
Thanks

I just seen one last night. All it is , is a piece of ss tubing and some fittings to connect the heads together. It was one of the sponsors here on the site, around $65.00

I had one built. They are -5 o-ring ports in the head. NAPA has the adapters for about 3 dollars each (weatherhead part number C5315X6X5), and the hose ends and hose (rubber version) is available at any hydraulic supply store 4000psi hose if i had to do it again I'd use 45 degree fittings. The hose and fittings are 3/8 or -6 AN/jic.

Did you notice anythng better, I did the same basic idea with my fuel system last night. Run a peice of 5/16" tubing from back of drivers head to the front of pass. head, ties the system together. can't say if it does any good.

The HPX Line- yes I did. It quieted the motor a little when everything balanced out.

Quiet is a thing of the past for me but I noticed the most improvement with ITP's Regulated Return. Couldn't believe how quiet and smooth it actually made my truck.

To anyone who may stumble upon this thread and pick up on this idea to cross-connect the fuel rails as mentioned ... without a full conversion to a regulated return system, this modification doesn't offer any benefits.
The fuel rails are already "cross-connected" at the fuel bowl because each fuel rail has it's own supply line connected to the same source. Cross-connecting the fuel rails at their ends with no supply from this line (and no forced flow through it) leads to the possibility of an air bubble remaining or at the very least ... no effect whatsoever. It is _possible_ that this could provide more fuel to the #8 cylinder that tends to get starved normally (8 fires after 6 in the firing order and they are located next to each other on the fuel rail). This configuration connects 8 to 1 through the cross-connect. The firing order has 6, 8, and then 1 which is also the order in which they are physically connected.
This cross-connect line could be effective at preventing fuel starvation if it included an accumulator. That is more trouble than it's worth. This proposed modification, in my opinion, is not beneficial.

Uh.....this thread is about tying togther the high pressure oil between the heads, not the fuel.
