With that said.... I'm going to go with an old-school H-pipe, and hopefully get more of a deeper "muscle car" sound, versus a modern European sound.

Nothing against anyone else's personal choices.... but I think an H-pipe is best for me.

I know the pipes are 3" ID..... but can anyone tell me about how LONG the resonator is? X pipes are so popular now, but H pipes are tougher to find, so I need to make sure I get one long enough to replace the resonator.

Anyone have their resonator removed, that can take a quick length measurement for me please?
This is US Spec Resonator, not sure if its different
