Where did you get the black coolant crossover blocks? Do they sell them with orings or are you using the standard GM orings?

That's what I love about my truck. No one expects a 4 door full size truck to move out LOL

My thought exactly. With the Procharger's air filter setup it would work great. Post up pics when you do yours, might have to follow suit.

Yeah, it depends if it a journal or ball bearing. The precision turbo's I got came with restricter. I got ball bearing.

I haven't used a restricts on either of my turbos. From the turbo expert ive talked to, if you have smoke issues you need a bigger drain line
