Which pacer swung the ball the most?

I don't think so. Imran would sometimes get those hooping in swingers but so could Wasim (just look at his year 2000 tours of SL and WI incredible swing in the air). Also Imran's more lethal in dipper would come in off the seam a long way usually.
Yes Wasim could generate that swing but it wasn't as regular an occurrence like Imran's booming one. I think Waqar had more lateral movement than Wasim also.

Imran and Steyn for me. There were two balls Immy bowled to Gavaskar and Vishy in the 82/83 series that boomeranged in from a huge distance, that should be candidates for ball of the century
