x or h pipe
Im looking to replace my exhaust and suggestions on headers? Id like to stick with bbk 1-5/8 in. Shorty Headers. My main question is, is there a big difference in tone between the x and h pipes... im going to be using the american thunder mufflers.

RE: x or h pipe
ppl say x pipe is "raspy" and H pipe is "deep" so in my mind i interpet that as like a sporter sound very a muscle car sound... performance isnt any major different... u cna get to mustangexhuast.com i htink as listen to sum setps.... u should get more responses as well... oh and if your goin with the thunders i woudl get an H pipe... i heard a clip... it whas with lts tho... sounded prettygood

RE: x or h pipe
it all depends on what sound you like. CrazyCobra is right about the sounds, so it all depends on what sound you are going for. Do you want a loud raspy sound or a deep muscle sound? Personally i think an h-pipe sounds better on the 5.0. ( thats just my opinion however)

I am running an H pipe on my 86 and besides those stupid cats would sound great. I am running an X pipe on my 74 camaro and even though it sounds really good, the police has taking a liking to it.

To me, on a 5.0 nothing sounds better than headers+prochamber+flows. X pipes sound really good on a mod motor. They sound alright on a 5.0 motor, but the H or prochamber sound so much better.
Here is a clip of my car. 1 5/8" equal lengths, offroad H, and 2 chamber flows. Just subtract the cam racket and you have the overall sound. http://4fit.mustangsofburlington.com.../MyExhaust.wmv
