>When you think about how a V8 engine runs, the exhaust is more of a
pulse than a continuous flow - first one side of the engine than the
other.
Except that there is backpressure. What you said would be true if you
had 100% flow.

My 72 had the same problem, but reversed, only the right low beam worked. It
turned out to be that the left low beam wire was corroded where it crimps to
the spade lug. I had to push the spade lug out of the plastic connector, cut
the wire, trim the wire and recrimp it. Then I pushed the spade lug
John,
If you
look closely at the X crossover, they're not actually a true X but more like two
bends with the back edge cut off the curve and then the two parts welded
together. From my understanding, this allows the exhaust pulses from one
side to expand into the other side regardless of

Good point Bill. I am on three lists and complaints
about off-topic posts happen on all three of them. It sort of comes with the
territory. That's what the delete key is for. I have always found that this
list is more than worth the price of admission.
I'm really surprised at how many people convert to quartz when the OEM
clocks are so easy to repair (and have that nice sweeping-hand movement).

I'm certainly no exhaust technology expert. Just repeating

If
your engine is properly tuned and you have a good set of headers, I don't see
how the gases could "collide". If anything, I would think, with an "X" pipe, the
