Crossover tube

I have a non intercooled, 1990 motor and am looking at upgrading the crossover tube and was wondering if a company makes them or if i have to make my own.

welcome aboard... fill out your signature (in "user CP") so we know what you have when you ask other questions!

As far as the tube goes, you're gonna need to make your own. Use the search option, many people here have done it (including myself) so you may get some good ideas when looking around. i actually swapped mine over to and intercooled intake plate... the intake is one "square" up so the crossover goes straight across until i can get an intercooler stuffed in there. companies don't make much for our trucks, but if you search around on here enough you will find PLENTY of cheap things you can do yourself.

Allows more airflow from the turbo to the Intake manifold with less restrictions than stock.

Works great for adding a diff turbo because stock nonintercooled turbo air feed is 2", intercooled turbos are 2.5", so build it right and they match up good.
