The other thing is this is a pretty mellow site. I'm on some car forums that can become quite the "Bickerfest." I've seen people here disagree, but still be civil.

I agree 100%. I take a lot of pride in being a small part of a car site that functions as peaceably as this one. I've belonged to a few that were just awful. The worst one I ever joined was the RROC, where the incessant bickering finally led me to sell my Rolls-Royce and cancel my membership; it just wasn't worth the stress. To add insult to injury, I paid in excess of $100 per year just to belong! I am glad to be out of it and those folks can fight one another to the death for all I care.

As for the question about the headers routed forward, who would want to run the exhaust pipes under the cross member? Every Pinto I have owned (16) had scrape marks all across the bottom of the cross member. Many times the pan too. And you want to run your exhaust under the cross member? Why not run the exhaust straight up like a derby car. And think how cool that would be on a cruse night.
