Default Hot parts routing

Ok I have been looking for something for a while now and havnt found an exact answer. I was woundering does it hurt anything to have the pass side header face the rear of the car and the drivers side facing the front. I thought that you wanted the hot parts on each side to be equal length. I see alot of kits made like this, but wasnt sure if it was just cause of lack of space. Would I gain anything from having both face the front and have equal length pipes? Thanks

Billy

Other than you will have to relocate your power steering pump and alternator? Nothing really, there are several that have done it.

Well im running an old school motor in an lt-1 car. Dist. in back, march brakets etc... So nothing is in a stock location. Just didnt know if it mattered to have the pipes the same length or not.

Doesn't matter at all. That equal length bull doesn't mean **** anyways.
