Default Long Tubes: Stepped vs. Non-stepped?

What's the difference? I'm looking to get some LT's in the next month (Kooks, QTP, etc) but while I was at Hooters with another LS1 owner last night, he mentioned the Edlebrock Victors being a great choice because they're stepped. I'm just wondering what the performance benefit is vs. a "traditional" design? Thanks.

What are your mods? Rule of thumb is unless you have a very healthy H/C combo, H/C & nitrous, or a stroker motor stepping may be too much. I thought about doing the same thing for the last 2 years.
