x pipe questions

im planning on replacing my loudmouth with some true duals after i get some lt/s on, and am wondering, do true dual systems usually have mandrel bends in them? the ones ive seen dont seem to have mandrel bend and look a little crimped. is that normal? would it matter with true duals?? and also, would a true dual set up made to fit hooker lt's fit on some edelbrocks? thanks a lot in advance

with the introduction of TSP's true duals that are mandrel bent it takes the guess work and problems out of a TD setup. off hand i dont remember if the edlebrocks are bassed of the grotts design or the hooker/jet hot setup.
