    Mike's right, Gordy. For "normal" driving you'll never see anything from either an H or X pipe other than maybe a smoother exhaust note. The scavenging is not going to kick in until you get up in the rpm range, when the engine's flowing at it's peak. I don't know if I'd worry with it much for a cruiser truck with a 283 unless you're planning on going to the drags bracket racing, or worrying over MPG to the second or third decimal place every time you fill your tank

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
