I guess I'll just have to show you up then, cuz my chat don't stink, but sadly my farts give me away every now and then.
According to wiki, as schedule goes up so does wall thickness.
My Dad told me that higher schedule = thicker sidewall
But I may be wrong as well, I get confused easily

What is 3/8'' thick pipe called?
Dyoung, I got good news and bad news.
Good news tomorrow I'll send out 12'' of 5'' of 3/8'' sidewall pipe
Bad news is that you'll need to take it to a machine shop if ya want to use it because of two reasons.
1. The ends are real ugly. (I'm not sure if a chopsaw will get it as straight as you want it)
2. I measured and the intake on my 7.3 is 5 and 3/16'' across, but there is enough sidewall in the pipe to be able to take it to a machine shop and get them to shoulder it out 3/32.
All in all it'll probably cost you a good 20-40 bucks depends on the machine shop.
