Is an H pipe worth the hassle?

I can't tuck my dual exhaust up well becuase my H pipe hits the tranny crossmember and I have dual cats so it's very tough to fit it all. Any ideas on what power I'd lose if I went with true duals?

Personally I would say not much. I mean it is nice to have the H Pipe, but I can't see you losing any significant amount of power at all.

Long shot but does anyone have dynos? I have a stealth ram, ported heads, cam on a 355 block with long tubes if that helps anyone. I just don't want to get rid of something I already have and lose potential power.

Yeah right on that is understandable. I don't have the dyno's so it would be nice to see if someone has dyno's or you could email the company to see if they have any dyno's.

That might be your best bet
