On the '53-'55(early) Corvette the pipes ran on both sides. The front pipe actually crossed over in the front of the engine, rather behind it. This was due to space constrictions in the 'Vette chassis. I beleive that the pipes were 2". I'm running Fentons on mine with the pipes on both sides (crosses under the tranny), I haven't noticed any problems with performance. I don't beleive that there is enough difference in the length to hurt anything.
