I ws going to go the wegner route but time was working and the corvette tube worked fine. With our block being filled now I wanted to make sure we had the rear tubes hooked up. I'd love to see a pic of how your manifold is setup, I have a pretty good idea though. With the new intake I had plenty of room under the manifold.

for those who have used either the corvette or ls6/1 crossover tube, can you guys post pics? also, this seems to be something all built motors should have, right?

You definately need to have those rear ones connected to get the air bubbles and air pockets out of the back of the heads. An air pocket can overheat and crack a head.
I use the LS6 pipe on the rear with a 1/4" heater hose to a T on the front, just like the other Corvette guys above. Never had a head problem on a road race car with this set up.

Kurt's setup is probably the best marketed solution. Much better look then hacking the stock stuff and running hoses.
