Looking for an x-pipe that will work with MAC shorties, I went on the MAC site but they only seem to make an H-pipe for 79-93 5.0. Post up if you have or know of an x pipe that will work with these headers.

How do you like the Pypes X? How long have you been using it, and how has it held up? I'm thinking of moving from my O/R H to the Pypes catted X, only to not have to swap back and forth for emissions testing, and I found a deal on a used X asking $150... I'm not sure if I'll like the X sound though, hmm...

Ran into a simular situation last week, BBK headers did NOT meet up to fit my MAC off road H pipe. So i had to order a new BBK X pipe, my car is gnarly sounding now with this off road X. Not sure I like it better than the H but its on there now....not unless anyone here wants to trade me for their BBK off road H?
