Default LS1 coolant crossover tube questions...
Will the LS1 front and rear coolant crossover tube assembly work with the truck intake, or are there clearance issues? Has anyone done it, and was there any fabbing involved if so? TIA

I think it will fit. There seems be be a lot of room under a truck intake and I can't think of anything else that couldn't interfere with it.

It should fit. Plenty of room for the knock sensor harness, right?

Why do you want to run that x-over?

ill test it out this afternoon. and this tube helps keep the coolant flowing more equally and runs cooler temps at the heads.

Yes it will work fine with the stock truck intake. I did this on my 5.3 in my older truck.
