Dear David,


               The X v. H pipe controversy.....the final word may be from
Dan Jones, but here is what I have read and think I know.

1) the X&H crossover pipes improve the exhaust performance
2) the benefit varies with the size of the crossover, the size of the
exhaust pipe and the position of the crossover fore or aft in the exhaust
pipes south of the collector
3) the benefit varies also with the factors of the engine size and primary
header pipe size
4) the Pantera greatly limits one's ability to place any crossover pipe
5) I can recall only one or two crossover pipes on Panteras and both
crossover just behind the rear sway bar brackets
6) One of the Pantera owners was Bob Woodhouse, who told me that it helped
the low end torque a little bit with his nationally competitive SCCA
autocross winning Pantera


             Warmest regards,  Chuck Engles

Well, you puddin' heads have me all grouchy and nasty again . . .

Amen.  I paid my $3000 student loan, went to Viet Nam (x2 what was I
thinking?) and was spat upon for my effort, worked my whole life and now
have about enough SS to pay your feminine hygiene bill for the month - does
this make me a bad person?  If so, please review what the "driving finger"
means (with splintery redwood stick).

Are the teachers bad?  All I can say is this: look at the product produced.
It is sad.

still grouchy, still dirty, still willing to help those in need no matter
how f__ked up your politics might be.

OK, going for a walk in the morning sun ,. . . . . 

Pantera content: anyone know if X-pipe or H-pipe is better?  Do you have
documentation? thanks.
