Logan, what the big boys down at the pool hall always told me was if there wasnt much of any exhaust pipe, the valves experienced too rapid of a cool down when a hot engine was suddenly shut off. HOWEVER depending on the heat mass and heat transfer and all that other thermodynamics mumbo jumbo, that may not hold true in a tracotr that was designed for almost wide open exhaust systems. Theres something else about exhaust systems which involves air flow and turbulence and how maybe a pipe might tune the system so exhaust actually flows out better?? Im an electrical engineer who almost flunked thermodynamcis, lets ask a mechanical type person who knowns that and fluid mechanics n turbulence etc etc?? Sorry no help, but still an interestin topic, I look forward to what the mechanics have to say John T
