What do you guys think? It has a quaint hand drawn diagram of how to use the check valves, and run the lines. It recommends -12 fuel line though and all I have is 1/2"

He had a no heat in the cab problem a week or so ago, turned out he blew the head gasket. He's getting the head done and is studding it, and I told him he better o-ring it too.
Studding might not totally fix it. The problem is the Vgt, coupled with aggressive turbo tuning, and I could almost guarantee you he tromped on the throttle with a cold engine. That behaviour has blown a stupid amount of 6.7 head gaskets. Swapping to an s400 on a 1st gen manifold will pretty much half the amount of drive pressure, and waiting until the engine is at operating temperature before being aggressive with the throttle will damn near stop the potential for hg failure. Also one of the tunes I bought is a max effort (makes pretty much 500whp) box tunes max out at 430whp thereabouts
