Looking good! I've looked at that turbo oil line twice now in your photos and I'm wondering if you may need a bracket/brace near the top of the hardline to prevent excess vibration. Maybe a thin strap off the nearby turbo manifold fastener? That long line standing straight up may turn out to be a tuning fork for some sympathetic vibrations/harmonics. At least it something to watch when it is fired up. I have a Cummins in my skidsteer and there is some shaking going on even with very solid motor mounts. Keep up the good work.
