I went with the H setup because that's what was done back in the day. I think the only
other deal back then was just running two separate pipes.
All of this new stuff seems like brain surgery to me but I'm old school and old (68.)
If you have a single strap gas tank like my '67 Cuda I'm not sure you
could fit a 3" pipe on the passenger side. I'm running 2-1/2"
and it's a tight fit in that area where the strap attaches to the
frame.
I had "H" pipes on my mid 60's Corvettes...they were factory.
Many, many years later I chose to use them on the Barracuda
when I built it. Got the setup from TTI with Dynomax Super Turbo
mufflers. System is 2-1/2".

Thanks!....sounds great
I haven't had any close up experience with "X" pipes so I can't comment
on them. What I do know is that I like the "H" setup.
Back in my Corvette days my '64 fastback had the "H" setup. GM did
that.
Here's some sound:
